Hi All,

I am aware that Sonos beam does not support Bluetooth, but has anyone tried using any kinds of converter that helps to enable bluetooth connectivity with Sonos beam ?

I have an LG HU70LA projector with firestick, which I want to mount on ceiling. I don’t want to run an HDMI cable from ceiling to Sonos beam since its an hasstle.

I am looking to connect Sonos beam to firestick from projector.

Anyone aware of solutions?

in theory a Bluetooth transmitter/receiver pair could connect through optical to the Beam but:

  • it would only be in PCM stereo, not DD5.1 or better
  • quality would be compromised by the lossy Bluetooth codec(s)
  • a substantial delay would be inserted into the audio, potentially ruining lip-sync

You might be able to improve things with a proprietary lossless, low latency, wireless transmission of some kind but IMO the endeavour is unlikely to yield satisfactory results.
