Question

Yamaha RX A830 and Sonos Home Cinema.

Hi

I have a Yamaha RX A830, Playstation 4, Panasonic Plasma 50”, and Apple TV.

For now the Yamaha receiver is the central unit for sound. Everything is connected to that in order to get surround from a 5.1 speaker setup.

I want to change to a Sonos 5.1 setup with Arc, sub, and 2 One SL.

I just want to make sure that I will still be able to get surround from all my sources with the Sonos setup. Can I connect the Sonos to the Yamaha RX A830?

It isn't the Arc. If you bypass the TV for audio there are no issues.  The Arc plays what it gets when it gets it.

    How to bypass the TV?

    Wasn’t using the TV and not a receiver the original recommendation?

    I use the HDFury Arcana and an HDMI switch. Mainly to get Atmos over TrueHD with an older TV, but sorting lip sync is a bonus.

    I have now spent as much time on this as I feel I can. I hope it has been of some use.
