Sonos Amp

Can you connect the amp wirelessly to an LG TV 32LQ63006LA. Unfortunately the TV is an after thought to our renovation, the ceiling speakers/amp cables are hidden within ceilings and walls. (Speakers and Amp are 3mths old) I suspect this can’t be done? Or is there a third party accessory that can be used i,e. Bluetooth

Look forward seeing responses and suggestions

No, Sonos can’t wirelessly connect to a TV natively, and I’m not aware of 3rd part method to accomplish this goal.  There are wireless HDMI devices, but I have no experience with these nor am I aware of any that can transmit an HDMI-ARC signal. As well, you’d likely be introducing some delay with additional devices and such between your TV and amp.  There might be a way to use a optical connection wirelessly, but I’m not aware.

The Sonos Amp doesn’t have bluetooth.

 

It should also be noted that ceiling speakers are not ideal for TV audio, especially if TV audio is afterthought for the speaker layout.  You may actually get better results by using a separate soundbar for TV audio, even though you have others speakers in the same room.

    Thanks for your answer, as I expected.

     

    Yes, I am aware ceiling speakers are not the best option, but would be better than the TV Speakers. I do have a Move so hopefully can Bluetooth the TV to the Move.
