Home theater

Hi I have a arc a sub and 4 Sonos ones. I have the arc under the tv, 2 x ones on the wall either side of the tv and 2x Sonos one’s behind me on the wall. Now I have had to set them up as a group to make all work with the tv but if I turn up and down volume with the tv remote it only controls the arc so I have to use the app to turn up and down tv. Is there a better setup so I can control all from remote .

I have a Sony KD-55AG8 TV connected with my Sonos Beam Gen 2 via the HDMI Arc port. Futher more a have Apple TV 4K (gen 3) connected to my TV via HDMI. The Apple TV sees the Sony TV only as an Dolby Digital 5.1 output device. For example Netflix movies played via the Apple TV only result in Dolby Digital 5.1 sounds being played on the Sonos Beam. If a play the same move on Netflix installed on the TV it self, Dolby Atmos is detected and played as such on the Sonos Beam. What to do to get the apps (Netflix, Disney+, Amazone Prime, Apple TV+) on the Apple TV 4 to make use of the Atmos possibility of the Sonos Beam ?Place a AV Dolby Atmos Receiver in the middle (Apple TV → AV Receiver (HDMI In), AV Receiver (HDMI 4K Out) → TV, AV-Receiver (HDMI Arc) → Sonos Beam  ?  Buy New TV with HDMI eArc  Accept what it is.. Or… ? Would love to read your suggestions

Hello, Does anyone know of an update to add 2 sub minis and pair them to the sonos amps for home theater? 

HiI have dropouts with my Sonos Arc when watching . The dropouts happen several times on a evening, about 8 second evert time.  The tv is philips 70 " about year old. The arc is 6 month old and the problem has been there since I bought it. The arc is wired.  I have tryed every possible soundadjustment without Any changes.  What can I do ? 

I have a Sonos Beam (first version) that lives with a Tivo Bolt and a Sony Android TV. They worked together successfully for awhile but recently the Tivo remote will no longer control the TV volume or on/off functions. I have re-paired the remote with the TV and all Tivo functions work including channel up/down, but volume and on/off now have to be accessed through the TV’s remote.  The Beam is connected to the TV through an HDMI eArc port. 

My Arc SL cannot connect to the Sonos App

In my living room I have 2 x (Play One SL); a Sub; and Playbar.I have four other sonos one SL’s in my house outside the living room. My wifi and mesh are all the same network. I also use google home for everything and right now it’s all on the same network. Will I be able to connect my living room speakers via ethernet and still be able to control them WITHOUT putting them into SonosNet mode? I think as soon as I put them into sonosnet mode, I no longer can control them with google home. But I haven’t tested this yet.  The goal is to free up bandwidth on my wifi by connecting my four living room speakers (2xOne-SL, sub, playbar); but still have my four house speakers; and still control them all on the same network, albeit ethernet and wifi. 

Bonjour,je suis complètement novice dans le domaine et compte sauter le pas d’acheter une barre de son arc oui s’étire sur éléments dans le futur.Mon problème d’où ma question, est que ma tv est fixée au mur et impossible de la décrocher pour permettre le raccordement d’un HDMI arc supplémentaire.Est il possible de la connecter uniquement sur secteur et wifi ou un raccordement physique à la tv est impératif?merci par avance pour votre aide.Matthieu

I recently purchased a Sonos Arc soundbar with Gen 3 sub and two Sonos One surrounds.  Connected to LG Model 49LJ550M TV.  Didn’t sink together initially, but finally got thing to connect.  Problem I’m having is after about an hour or so, the sound switches back to TV internal speaker.  The only way I have found to reconnect is to unplug the TV and then plug back in to power.  I love the Sonos sound, but the constant disconnection is driving me bonkers.  Anyone else having this issue?  If I can’t find a solution, I think I will return and try to find some other system that is more stable.  Help

I have a 2014 Samsung TV and connected my Playbar to it. I experienced problems with getting Dolby 5.1 to play through my system. I ended up buying a dip switch online and connecting it between my BluRay player and Samsung. My question is… IF I buy the Samsung Q60B, are there ways via menu items that help connect SONOS components easily and successfully? Has SONOS changed any firmware issues that make integration with new TVs easier?

Netflix UK has rolled out Spatial Audio. I have a Beam Gen 1 with sun so 3.1 Netflix set to 5.1. For spatial audio do I need to set Netflix audio to stereo? Using optical cable if that makes a difference.

I am looking to upgrade my SONOS Playbar (Gen1) with the ARC.  I want to verify my current SUB (Gen1) and Play:1 (rear) will work with the ARC.

-Me gustaría saber si: ¿El cable hdmi de la sonos beam gen1 es el mismo que el de la sonos beam gen2?-Tengo un problema, cuando conecto la sonos beam gen 1 a un televisor samsung del 2018 a la toma hdmi (arc), estando la tv apagada , el led rojo de stand by de la tv parpadea lentamente, ¿¿alguien sabe a que es debido y como se soluciona?? Tengo otra Tv samsung del mismo año conectado a otra barra y no le pasa.En principio la tv y la sonos beam parece que  funcionan correctamente . Muchas gracias

Is this possible, or does surround sound only come via a Soundbar at the front?Apple TV just seems to give me the option to select the pairs of speakers, with no way of saying which ones are front and rear. 

Sorry as in heading 

Hello, I would like to connect my sonos beam with my XIAOMI MI SMART PROJECTOR 2.The HMDI input doesn’t work, how can I connect both one to each other please?Thanks in advance. 

Hi, I am interested in the Sonos ARC + 2 One to replace my JBL BAR 9.1 but in my set-up, the 2 One surrounds will not be at equal distance from the listening point so I need an adjustment of their right/left balance otherwise I will end up with an imbalance at the back. Can you confirm me if this left/right adjustment of the surrounds is possible on this bar ?

When I power up the TCL C835  TV, the Sonos beam gen 1 (connected with eARC) takes at least 10-15 sec to start play audio.  The same model of beam with Samsung TV without such long delay!  Any setting to improve the delay.

New to Sonos, set up the arc as per instructions, everything seemed to be working, using my remote to turn volume up and down, logged into the app everything seemed ok , until I try and adjust the EQ or height, or night time control and the voice enhancement none of these work. I'm running the correct WiFi networks mobile and arc connected to the same network. I'm using a xomi tv box. Please help. I'm in Norway.
