Yeah I’m afraid I don’t have that much sway, ​@Gavalar

Hi ​@Gavalar 

I’m an Arc Ultra owner myself, and have been hoping for the same too!

Made me giggle! I am surprised you have not been pushing it harder your side!

 

Can this be escalated as it really is killing sales, especially as the company is still on relatively thin ice and I was hoping Sonos would listen to customers more now? (Not you personally, but the company in general). 

 

Many thanks 

Exactly the reason I have not “upgraded” to the Arc Ultra, and won’t, until they provide the ability to adjust the center-channel, discretely. I guess Sonos just hates money?!

I think this is the problem. Sonos management doesn’t appear to want to listen to its customers, or its staff :-(

They listen but it seems the number of complaints, ones called into support, less so forum posts, drives the fix priority list.

Hey ​@Stanley_4, appreciate the message. I and several others contacted Sonos directly, raised complaints. I even emailed the old CEO.

Nothing ever done about it. If I’m honest. I’m waiting for something decent to come on the market that is a rival. A shame as this would be close to what I need with adjustable front left and right.

 

Hopefully the ProTune will sort.
