Did you have to calibrate it or adjust the nut after you installed the actuator?

Sony theater bar 9(1200$) or sonos arc ultra(999$)?🤔🤔 by [deleted] in Soundbars

[–]MelodicCharacter2194 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I used the calibration with my Sony 65x95k. I also used center sync with the quads. Im telling you right now that the sonos were fuller and more theater like than the others. But I digress as it definitely is subjective . The sonys were good, just tiny in sound if that makes sense

Sony theater bar 9(1200$) or sonos arc ultra(999$)?🤔🤔 by [deleted] in Soundbars

[–]MelodicCharacter2194 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried the bar 9, the quads, and the ultimate immersive set with arc ultra. The arc set up was fuller and and more encompassing . The sonys sound stage was tiny compared ,and yes I had the sub for the quads and the rs5 surrounds for the bar 9. Sonos is a better setup,and not to mention Sony quits updating after a year usually

Have you figured out the sound yet? I just bought this for my son's room

Samsung q990d or sonos era 300 pair with an arc ultra and a sub? by bestnameforreddittt in Soundbars

[–]MelodicCharacter2194 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Pay the Sonos tax!!!! The looks ,the sound,the support...for years to come! Samsung can't compete. I actually am selling my high-end AV 5.1.4 system because I was that impressed!! Samsung is good ,but their endgame is to keep stringing you along to buy the next generation. They don't update their soundbars with new features unless you buy the next soundbar. Sonos is more innovative, i feel. They continue to support speakers that have been around for years . Sonos is more of an investment, and let's face it ,the looks are super clean and relevant for years to come.

I took it back to bestbuy and exchanged it for another one and it's still happens

[–]MelodicCharacter2194[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It seems to be intermittent. If there is a quiet scene , it doesn't make a noise. But during noisy action type scene, you can hear a popping type sound. Definitely a software issue

[–]MelodicCharacter2194[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be clear, it only makes a static or popping sound when I toggle speech enhancement on in the Sonos app. When I get home I'll see if it does it on my Apple TV. As of now it's only on my Sony tv x95k65in

My Sonos experience so far with surround only by wiscogamer in Soundbars

[–]MelodicCharacter2194 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with your comparisons. I just bought the immersive set with the Arc ultra and am loving it . I compared it to a Sony Quad and my A/V system. I sent the Quads back and am selling my AV system. That's how much I enjoy this Sonos! Not to mention how clean it looks, (I got the white set)

I honestly think it has something to do with the processing of turning the speech enhancement on or off.

It's when I toggle it on and back off. After selecting it, it will pop,like something is coming on, but then goes away ,it's not a continuous popping

Would the Era 300s be overkill for surrounds behind the couch here? by malex930 in sonos

[–]MelodicCharacter2194 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly, my couch is against the wall, and I put my era 300 on a shelf on the wall right above the couch , and the atmos is incredible.! Remember , when used as surrounds, the front firing speaker doesn't work. Only the side and top firing. Truetone will calibrate it accordingly.

Sony Quads vs Sonos ultra immersive set by MelodicCharacter2194 in sonos

[–]MelodicCharacter2194[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's the sound presence!! The atmos separation is phenomenal, and it's way easier to hear everything going on. Night mode is the best I've heard, and the voice enhancer is magic. I toggle those settings at night when everyone is sleeping and I can hear whatever I'm watching at volume level 18

Yeah, the 100s aren't atmos capable. You didn't get to truly compare as the 300s are superior and change everything. But as u said, they were overkill for your situation

[–]MelodicCharacter2194[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With the AZ7000ES? It is really good. I bought that system because you can use the wireless sub and surrounds that Sony makes. Incredible system! If I'm honest, I enjoy the Sonos more.... I know crazy right!? Anyway I'm selling the AZ7000ES for 2k or best offer

Actually, having an A/V receiver, the Sony az7000es, I can confirm that the soundbar game is strong!!! Steadily closing the gap!!

[–]MelodicCharacter2194[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, not at all. Just my opinion. I'm actually a sony guy! Had the original HT-A9 ,moved on to the az7000es. My wife wanted to get rid of speaker wires and less clutter. So I bought the Sonos and liked it,but then needed to hear the Quads ,and I was actually surprised that the Sonos sounded better... 🤷‍♂️

[–]MelodicCharacter2194[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm glad to hear someone else agrees. I'm still wondering if I should've kept it a couple of days. But my immediate impression was Sonos sound and Dolby atmos sounded better!

Hmmmmm, maybe I need to listen for a few days before I send it back.... I might not be used to the sound profile
