How does Sonos factor in the sound delay via Bluetooth? Does it automatically sync up, or do you have to do it on the device / tv ?
when using it for the TV, there is no delay with a playbar or beam because they are connected via fiberoptic and HDMI. i have not experienced any significant delay when streaming music either.
Oh I didn't realize they were connected via cord. Thought it was wireless. I ask because I had that issue with my projector setup. Had an LG soundbar that was BT, and I could link it to my "box" (Nvidia Shield TV) but there was always a ~0.5s delay in the sound. You could adjust it via the settings on the Nvidia Shield, but if the Sonos are wired it doesn't matter anyway.
SONOS IS CONNECTED VIA WIFI, NOT BLUETOOTH. I HAVE NOT NOTICED ANY DELAY WHEN STEAMING MUSIC TO ANY OF THE ONES IN MY HOUSE. THE PLAYBAR CONNECTION TO THE TV IS OPTICAL SO NO DELAY THERE EITHER.
Sorry, I meant delay when using the Sonos as the TV sound. Music won't delay, because it doesn't have to sync up with whats happening on the screen. I'm just referring to when using the Sonos (or any soundbar over wifi / BT) to watch TV... then people's mouths don't align with the sound, etc.
THE ONLY WIRE IS THE ONE OPTICAL YOU NEED TO RUN FROM THE PLAYBAR TO THE TV IF YOU ARE USING IT THAT WAY. OTHER THAN THAN IT'S ALL VIA WIFI. THE TRUE BENEFIT OF SONOS IS PAIRING/GROUPING MULTIPLE SPEAKERS TOGETHER THROUGHOUT A HOME. IF YOU ARE ONLY GETTING THE PLAYBAR OR JUST 1 SPEAKER, IT'S NOT REALLY ALL THAT DIFFERENT FROM ANY OTHER WIRELESS SPEAKER AND NOT BEING USED TO IT'S FULL POTENTIAL IMO
Finally got my couch in. Need to grab some accent pillows and maybe a new rug. Please disregard the TV. Copping a new one after the Super Bowl.
I’m asking for big boy TVs. Vizio and tcl are Air BNB brands Samsung or lg are the only brands I’ll mess with since my Panasonic plasma is on her last breaths
