Gaming Monitor for Sonos Ray

Any recommended monitors for Sonos Ray? As I know it has to have an optical port to play sound.

Can it connect directly to an xbox series x?

 

Directly?  No, as the xbox doesn’t have an optical output.  You would need to get optical audio extractor like this one between the xbox and whatever hdmi capable monitor you’re using.

I would probably get a TV instead of a monitor though with paired with the xbox, as most TVs will have optical output built in.  Depends really on what all you hope to do with your setup.

Monitors are typically display only.  The Ray is going to connect directly the mac/PC or whatever source device you’re using.
