Hours spent building. Still not working

I received a new Sonos Arc White and subwoofer but the app and system are very buggy. I've already wasted 2 hours and it still doesn't work properly! I called support and they stopped me. I waited over 30 minutes then hung up and called back. They closed while I waited. I have factory reset both the soundbar and subwoofer multiple times. I've had to uninstall and reinstall the app many times and the setup always fails at various points along the way. The app is obviously very buggy. Don't waste

Pros
  • Solid construction
Cons
  • Some difficulties

Not bad but could use an upgrade to offer better HDMI connectivity

Nice addition to the existing Sonos One. However, Sonos could do a better job of providing a smoother connection to the TV. Even when connected to the HDMI Arc port, the setup wizard continued to detect interference from devices connected to other HDMI ports. I ended up using optical cable > HDMI adapter. So no Dolby Atmos. It seems to work best with the HDMI eARC connector. Sonos needs to understand that not everyone will buy a new TV with this connector. So disappointed that Dolby Atmos is

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Long delivery time

Great sound, big mistake entering into an $800 soundbar.

Great sound! As expected from Sonos. Don't miss my subwoofer. A bow alone is enough. bad moments Going cheap, Sonos didn't have a dedicated HDMI input, you have to use an arch or ear through your TV. Which is very disappointing for an $800 soundbar. People have good old TVs with headphones. Many televisions do not transmit sound well through the arc. Sonos relies on the TV arc, but fails because the sound change that goes through it is based on the connection between the TV and the soundbar…

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • The list is getting long.

Great package, terrible adware app

Despite great sound quality and a decent overall package with more products that integrate well with each other, Sonos product management is a mess due to the Sonos S2 app. They constantly show you ads related to Sonos radios and other products, and the ads are placed where you would normally click the UI option. I use their app on iPhone and it usually takes many clicks to change a simple setting. I find it funny that given the price, they don't offer a basic app or physical remote control. At

Pros
  • Best

  • Everything great

Sonos Arc: Information to keep you from going crazy during setup

Introduction: I connected my Sonos Arc to a 2019 65" Samsung The Frame and an NVIDIA 1050ti PC media server using an HDMI cable to the Samsung OneConnect box. I watch my media using VLC media player. The operating system is Windows 10 and I have the Dolby Access app. My rating and experience is based on using it as part of a PC based home media Centers. I won't go into the nuances of Dolby and Dolby Digital Plus (DD+) here, other than how I got them to work in my setup IMPORTANT SETUP INFO: 1…

Pros
  • Sleek design
Cons
  • Updates
