Hi,

I have never owned any Sonos stuff before and was looking at buying some for home cinema experience. I have SkyQ with Sony TV and was going to buy a beam or Arc but then read all the stories about lip sync issues with Sky. If spending that much I just want something that will just plug in and works.


Does everyone have lip sync issues or is it only the exception?

Thanks

I have Sky Q in 3 rooms.  One of these is connected to an Arc and another to a Beam (Gen 1).  My Sky Q boxes are connected via ethernet cables, as are the two Sonos sound bars.

 

For 99% of the time, I don’t experience any lip sync issues.  The rare exception is on Sky News occasionally but I used to get this with the built in speakers and so consider this to be a Sky issue.
