I have an SVS SUB LB PB-16 Ultra.  I want to continue to use this Sub but the Arc does not have a sub out of course.  Can I Connect(Bond) the Arc to the Amp wirelessly and use the Sub Out on the Amp JUST for my Sub?

thanks

When used as surrounds, the Sub Output on the Amp is disabled. And if you group the Amp with the Arc, you will experience a slight delay from the Amp. You can only use a Sonos Sub or Sub Mini with the Arc.

So, no. When you use the Arc, you can only use the Sonos Sub. 


That is such bad news. Installed two Gen 3 subs to the Arc and it’s no where near the volume and low end of a SVS sub (PB-16 Ultra).  Installed a 100” Hisense and the headphones out jack is non-variable just a set signal that I can’t control the volume up and down.

No 3rd party wireless sub adapter I assume :(
