Xbox Series X settings

New Sonos Arc owner here. I’ve no idea what the Xbox Series X(or my TV-Vizio P75-C1) audio settings should be. It’s set up/connected to my TV fine(HDMI-arc), but no idea for optimizations. Any advice welcome...

Thanks for the help. Should I turn Surround Sound off in the TV’s audio settings?

I think this setting only affects the TV’s internal speakers.

Does the Arcana have two inputs? I’d like to have the better audio for both Xbox and my Oppo.

The Arcana only has one input. That’s why I recommended an HDMI switch so you can connect multiple devices. I am using a 3-port switch with an Apple TV, UHD 4K player, and Roku Ultra connected to it. I can send a link to the specific switch I am using if you are interested. Only certain switches will work correctly with the Arcana.

The Arcana has three HDMI ports: eARC OUT, HDMI OUT, and HDMI IN. eARC OUT connects to the Sonos Arc. HDMI OUT connects to the TV. HDMI IN connects to one external media device or an HDMI switch with multiple devices.

That’s the Integral 2, not the Arcana. Here’s the Arcana: https://hdfury.com/product/4k-arcana-18gbps/

So does the I2 do two eARC? Is there a setup that has two inputs?

It may pass eARC, but it doesn’t create it. So far, only the Arcana does that.
