Each console is hooked up to a LG 47" LED TV. The video quality is fantastic but the sound left a lot to be desired. This "problem" needed a solution. I set four simple goals to address this.1) The system had to sound great. 2) High Wife Acceptance Factor. :) 3) I did not want to run a separate A/V receiver. I simply don't have the room. 4) I did not want to run wires under the baseboards or carpet. To achieve these goals I decided to build a complete Sonos Home Theater System, with the new PLAYBAR front and center (literally). Here are the components I chose for my system: - Sonos BRIDGE - Sonos PLAYBAR - Sonos SUB - Sonos PLAY:3 (x2 as Surround Speakers) Let's start with the setup. First thing I did was download the Sonos software for my laptop and hooked up the Wireless BRIDGE to my router. After the software downloaded and...

It's designed super sleek and cool, and does a great job at "fake" surround. But it's a single bar, so it lacks the true surround sound that you'd get from having separate sub & speakers spread out, which you probably already know. If that's what you're looking for then look into true surround systems instead. Or, for an even bigger expense, it can be expanded to a true wireless 5.1 system by adding the Sonos Sub and two Play:3 speakers.The connections provided: a single optical audio input, a power port, and a pair of ethernet jacks. So, you can connect your home theater devices directly to your TV, then connect your TV's optical audio output directly to the sound bar. But if your TV lacks an optical audio output, then you'll run into a variety of complications. They're mostly *workable* complications, but just be prepared to deal with this as a hassle if you're lacking optical audio. Yes, it's pricey. But, keep...

Really it does so much more (and I'll get to that). First, as a sound bar, it works well and is easy to set up: plug in the power cord and an optical cable from your TV and that's it, as far as audio connections go. To fully configure the unit and get it to work with your existing remote, you'll need to install the SONOS controller app (free) which runs on PC, Mac, Android and iOS devices. In the app is where you "add a device" and establish the SONOS network in your home.Also, if you don't have any other SONOS products in your home, you'll need to either connect the PlayBar to your network router or network switch with a network cable, or purchase a SONOS BRIDGE which plugs into your network router. The reason you need... Read more |
