like the features, setup was difficult for some of my devices (August Door lock, kzbin.infoUgkxhB5YOMNj04GuoAosExygP4cH-dKeb4aB Bose speaker)... but all switches and outlets (5), thermostat, tankless water heater. Unfortunately all I can do is turn on/off Bose. It doesn't support volume or changing channels, but I believe that is due to the particular speaker I have.... Worth getting if you already have other devices to use it with... I don't sit around and ask Alexa questions much so that doesn't really matter to me....

What would you use for your centre channel or don’t you need one?
@smarthomesounds3 жыл бұрын
Hi Phillip, the Amp actually produces a phantom centre channel when you use the Amp as the front left and right with your TV. We found it to be very impressive and you don't feel like the sound is coming from the 2 speakers either side but throws the sound to either side when it needs to like for example if a car moves from left to right. Of course, it wouldn't compare to having a dedicated HiFi system with centre channel etc but it makes the best of what a wireless system can do. I hope that helps!

I am setting up a small home theater. I thinking of using the following: Sonos Arc, and two sonance in ceiling. So I will need those items and amp, right? I would also like to use a Sub.

I was thinking of just fixing the amp behind the tv.
@smarthomesounds3 жыл бұрын
Hi Taylor. Yes that's correct, you'll need the Sonos Amp to power the Sonance in-ceilings as rears to the Arc. The Sonos Arc is what will connect to the TV via HDMI-ARC, the Amp will power the ceiling speakers via speaker cable to each ceiling speaker and does not need to be connected to the Arc as it can be set up as surrounds to the Arc wirelessly. The Sub will also connect wirelessly to the zone. All 3 components will also need mains power. I hope that helps!

In a media room would it make sense to have the Arc under the TV and the in wall for the left and right channels?
@smarthomesounds3 жыл бұрын
Hi there, thanks for watching. Unfortunately, the Arc cannot act as a centre channel but it may be something Sonos look into doing in the future if there is enough demand. Currently, what would happen is you'd group the TV Audio from the Arc to the in-wall speakers but it wouldn't sound great. Therefore you'd either need to use all in-wall speakers (instead of the Arc) and the Amp will output a phantom centre channel or use the Arc to replace the in-wall speakers. I hope that helps!

Hi Alistair, you'd be able to group the audio from the architectural TV speakers as a separate zone with the Arc, Sub and One SLs but it wouldn't be an official set up from Sonos and probably wouldn't be worth the investment. The maximum you can achieve is 5.1.2 Atmos by using the Arc, Sub and rear speakers which can be One SLs or in-ceiling / in-wall speakers. If you have the full Arc system at the moment, currently the only way you could improve the set up is by adding a second Sub but it's certainly not for everyone. I hope that helps!
