I don't have a suggestion for you but a question.
Basement in new house. Got the TV mounted and have stuff on an old table temporarily while I look for new table.
Need table to cover the electrical outlet but not be too close to TV. So height needs to be between 20-27 inches. Options 1, 3, 4 sit below the electrical outlet. Option 2 would hide electrical outlet. Other considerations, I want to hide the wires and plan to put a sound bar (Sony 3.1 Ch Hi-Res) on the table.
Got it narrowed to these 4 tables. What you guys think?
1.
2.
3.
4.
Also open to suggestions for the table.
Will Syracuse beat Duke tonight?

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

TCL is the best size for the buck, yes. The quality isn’t great though.

So you should be more specific when asking, people just trying to look out.
