i have a Sonos Beam Gen 2, currently i have it connected directly to my Sky Q box, is that the best connection or should i connect to my HDMI ARC ?

hi, i can only set my tv to PCM

And my sky box i can only set to normal 

when i look at my system on the app in the Audio  for the beam it says PCM 2.0 and for the Play 1’s it just says they are connected  

If setup as a stereo pair, first remove the pairing, then add the PLAY:1’s as surrounds.

sorry i have 2 x sonos play 1 ………...not sure if that makes a difference 

 

Thanks, i have a beam and two Sonos 1, and i very rarely hear anything out of the two S1’ 

 

Yes. This also allows BEAM to render audio for TV Apps.

hi buzz

does that give me the best sound when listening to TV

 

You should connect to the TV’s HDMI-ARC.
