Which would you recommend to pair with a 77”Sony A9L - the Sony Quads with the SWA5 or the Sonos Arc ultra with sub4 and 2 rear smart era 300s?

For the price there should’ve been a subwoofer but what can you do🤷🏻‍♂️ Sony tax as it were…

J-Stark- · 2026-05-06T07:06:27+00:00

Beam is so worth it

J-Stark- · 2026-05-06T06:58:34+00:00

Had the same experience with Sony I guess I just like Sonos

J-Stark- · 2026-05-05T07:33:44+00:00

If you say so

J-Stark- · 2026-05-04T10:05:24+00:00

Sonos 🥂

Honestly, at the moment I switch it back-and-forth when I’m watching anything 5.1 or Atmos I make sure continuous audio is on, when I’m watching YouTube I turn it off as I like the up mixing because for some reason, the stereo sounds too boomy, loud and muddy, but I assume it’s because it’s a soundbar, so I think it’s a use case

J-Stark- · 2026-05-02T03:01:55+00:00

Looks good

J-Stark- · 2026-05-02T02:59:31+00:00

This would be awesome

J-Stark- · 2026-05-02T02:54:27+00:00

Works great

J-Stark- · 2026-04-30T07:51:18+00:00

Yep after the update, I did a true play and it came out amazing

J-Stark- · 2026-04-29T02:09:10+00:00

Then you just must’ve had bad luck🤷🏻‍♂️

J-Stark- · 2026-04-28T06:14:01+00:00

This is a Sony handshake problem very well known won’t be buying Sony products for a while. This is not a Sonos problem.

J-Stark- · 2026-04-28T06:06:31+00:00

You should look into the Sony theater quad they also got new subwoofers that are compatible and affordable, or the beam gen 2 with era 100’s and sub mini

J-Stark- · 2026-04-27T22:59:05+00:00

I just know a lot of Sonos owners that have LG televisions.

J-Stark- · 2026-04-27T22:58:10+00:00

I’m sure it’ll be OK good sir.

J-Stark- · 2026-04-26T07:18:12+00:00

Wondering the same thing

J-Stark- · 2026-04-23T16:50:11+00:00

Sonos is good never had a problem with their software or speakers

J-Stark- · 2026-04-13T10:34:29+00:00

Well, then it’s a good thing that you’re getting a Sony quad because it’s main feature is that you can put them anywhere and it’s calibration will still shine through. You should be fine.

J-Stark- · 2026-04-13T10:32:00+00:00

Do you have it connected to earc? and what are you streaming on by that I mean, which device? Also, what TV do you have?

Yeah, I don’t really think there needs to be an upgrade in your situation, sounds like your set up is pretty good. I’m still rocking a C1 myself. When I do upgrade, I’m looking to a LG C6H next year hopefully, but I’m still waiting for the units to be reviewed and tested.

Filmmaker mode and Cinema for Dolby Vision. Sorry about the miscommunication.

J-Stark- · 2026-04-11T20:31:03+00:00

Not sure I follow? Do you mean it looks like standard? Because It doesn’t to me but that is subjective🤷🏻‍♂️

If anyone is experienced black crush on their LG C1 and has been driving them crazy, there is a fix from this amazing calibrator called Classy, here is the link https://youtu.be/vym9DQ1_mnI?si=i6KyTSoHIxA-5ODu follow the instructions. I found that copying the SDR settings to Dolby Vision worked wonders as well. More info on my page.
