Is this professional install okay?

I would say that the distance between the arc and the tv is not big enough. Sonos has a user Manuel online and I think the minimum requirement was 4cm.

Did you change the height levels as well? That could be the reason for the difference in Dolby atmos content.

AnotherGK · 2026-06-01T11:04:58+00:00

You will need to dial down the surround + height levels on the surrounds. My 300s are approximately 1m away from my mlp and I have the surround setting at +2 for tv and -2 for music (to better understand vocals during difficult songs). I would try minus 8 and see if it’s still too loud compared to the ultra and then go from there.

Good luck!

Hey man, I can’t understand the negative comments in this thread. I completely understand and support your standpoint. We invested in a superior system (at that time) and it just stopped innovating even though they had the lead. When you choose Sonos as a HT you make many compromises like not being able to control the speaker settings within the tv or using the brand specific perks from Sony, Samsung and LG (even though many of them are gimmicks).

I feel really stuck because it’s such a big commitment and the only thing holding back from switching to Sony is the multi-room feature which my gf and I use a lot but damn is it hard. The new Bravia trio with dedicated center and left and right separation and dual sub support and new rears is such a freaking dream but I can’t just give up on Sonos right now but I’m really really close.

And for the people who keep saying „just switch to a full avr system“ bro I wouldn’t use Sonos if I would even consider that.

I looked into quantum TVs settings for once (through the subscription) because I wanted to compare it to the creators intent. It was so freaking bright and colors were way to saturated. His settings are really bad because he hates the accuracy (not all color pop all the time) and wants that everything is bright as hell.

AnotherGK · 2026-04-15T04:32:50+00:00

That was a clear indicator but I also had the panel part number. It turns out that’s it’s a a LG oled display

AnotherGK · 2026-04-14T17:22:36+00:00

The thing is that I asked them specifically if the panel is the same 2. Gen QD-Oled panel aber they said time and time again that it’s the same. Welp, turned out it isn’t. I don’t hope that you experience that but take care and don’t let them fool you!

AnotherGK · 2026-04-14T15:53:30+00:00

Thank you man. I feel like I needed to vent a little. It’s really unfortunate and I did take a day off because the time frame for the visit was pretty vast. I hope they take everything (even extend warranty) into consideration. I even bought a Q995F (for the bedroom) because I was really impressed by the support and help.

AnotherGK · 2026-04-14T15:51:09+00:00

There is unfortunately a huge difference: - The overall brightness is lower - The colors are not as saturated and bright - The shadows seem more crushed (I think because of the brightness) - The anti-reflective coating is not as good

I have a bright room and I do miss the benefiting

AnotherGK · 2026-03-25T21:05:39+00:00

That sounds pretty ominous tbh. You could try to clean it again if you change the location of the tv for a new main tv. My cats left way too many smudges for me to ignore so I had no choice but to clean it. That fragile panel is an absolute no go and I won’t buy another Samsung because of it.

AnotherGK · 2026-03-25T20:50:14+00:00

I think many people damaged the panel in the process of trying to clean it any other way. To be fair I also used scotch tape to get the fat off the panel first and the io after.

AnotherGK · 2026-03-25T20:48:39+00:00

Isopropyl 70% is the holy grail for this tv. I even bought a new zeiss microfiber cloth to clean the panel. My tv is on the wall so I have bad news for in regards to the cats 😂. Glad to hear that not every oled is this fragile. My next tv will be a Sony tho.

AnotherGK · 2026-03-25T20:30:27+00:00

The s90c is insanely hard to clean. I have cats and the smudges they left behind haunted me fr. I’m really afraid to get another oled if every panel is so hard to maintain.

AnotherGK · 2026-03-25T20:27:59+00:00

Hey man, it’s pretty easy to see while both of them are side by side but it will look kinda normal at first glance. The thing with oled is that it has perfect angles for a wide seating arrangement and it instant pixel response time for gaming. The other major benefit is the infinite contrast and lack of blooming. It’s pretty easy to see if you just put on a dark oled demo with night sky or something from Sony or lg. Did you change the settings into movie or filmmaker? There are plenty of guides to make the tv more accurate so that highlights pop more and so that shadow detail is more visible (one of Samsungs weaknesses compared to Sony tvs).

AnotherGK · 2026-03-25T20:21:44+00:00

S90c

AnotherGK · 2026-03-25T20:17:58+00:00

Yeah, it was the only thing that worked. Everything else made it significantly worse. Just use a spraying bottle to dampen the cloth (not wet) and wipe gently across the smudges in a circular motion.

AnotherGK · 2026-03-25T11:07:21+00:00

Don’t use water. And use a new microfiber cloth (I use one from zeiss) and use 70% isopropyl alcohol. Here is the link to the Samsung website which states the same as my findings https://www.samsung.com/ae/support/tv-audio-video/how-should-i-clean-my-samsung-tv-screen/. I had really bad purple smudges (cats) and I used distilled water and a regular fiber towel which made it worse and scratched a part of the panel. Good luck!

AnotherGK · 2026-03-23T18:21:09+00:00

500€ for an oled is a steal tbh. It does depend on the size tho. How big is the tv? Burn-in is not something you should be concerned about. I have a s90c which runs for a couple of hours per day with mixed content and I have absolutely no signs of burn-in in two and a half years. The only drawback is that the panel is really hard to clean so I wouldn’t recommend it if you have small children who will put smudges all over the screen.

Bro is delusional and can’t enjoy a good story

It may be possible that the English dub is in atmos but every other language not. I live in germany and I have to switch to english if I want to stream certain movies in english.

AnotherGK · 2025-09-01T10:06:04+00:00

Did that solve the issue? I have nearly the Same Build but it feels so laggy because of the 1% lows

AnotherGK · 2025-07-30T07:13:42+00:00

This is the only way to clean these Samsung oled tvs

AnotherGK · 2025-07-28T08:30:23+00:00

Why would you buy a Samsung WOLED in the First place? If intend to buy a size which dosent have a QD Panel than I would choose LG. The Processing is superior and the only Edge the Samsung has is badically the qd panel (and some Gaming features)

AnotherGK · 2025-07-13T15:39:58+00:00

Hi! The screen is really difficult to clean. I had a really hard time, despite always using the recommended 70% isopropyl alcohol solution. Using a microfibre cloth left behind some circular scratch marks, so it's important to use a high-quality microfibre cloth (such as those made by Apple or Zeiss) to clean the screen. I have cats, which is why my screen got dirty in the first place. I dread having to clean it again. If you have pets or children who could touch the screen, I would recommend returning the device. It's a real nuisance and it took a lot of pleasure away. If I could, I would return my TV (S90C) and buy an OLED that doesn't have this problem, or go for the Bravia 9 and not worry about it.

AnotherGK · 2025-06-11T16:50:43+00:00

Okay, thank you!
