era 300 + sub gen3 connection to tv

How can I connect my stereoset era300 to tv and get dolby atmos sound or something else dolby sound? Bluetooth works nice with music but not tv sound. If I buy usb-c adapter, is that working for me?

The Era 300’s nor Era 100’s were never intended for direct connection to a TV the same as a Sonos soundbar. The line-in adapter is intended for a Turntable or CD player. However, using a line out for TV audio may work; as in theory the principle is the same 🤔. As I have never tried it I can’t say yea or nay. 

Even if it does work I doubt you’ll get Dolby Atmos as Line in is Stereo (PCM).

The only Atmos output on a TV is via HDMI ARC/eARC. There is no line level output available, there just isn’t the bandwidth necessary.

Remember any analogue connection with a Sonos device will ad 70ms delay. Not good for TV viewing.
