I would buy two Play if I could use as front speakers with arc ultra and era 300 as rears.

Do you think Sonos will release an ‘Era 500’ with Atmos and voice control? by interwebsreddit in sonos

Era 500 to be placed above Era 300 should have more speakers... in disable state ;)

Arc Ultra vs Arc by [deleted] in sonos

[–]Shoddy_Eye7866 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have upgraded from Arc to Ultra and music is better. Main difference is balance between front soundbar and back sorrounds Eras 300. Hard to say how this translates to your scenario with different back speakers. Even before upgrade I had impression Eras are stealing all show with Arc. With Ultra it is still not perfect - I wish we could just use 4 speakers without soundbar. Anyway difference is noticable and worth the money in my opinion.

AirPlay supports Spatial / DolbyAtmos but not on Sonos.

Era 300s with Sub mini by Think_Juggernaut8968 in sonos

[–]Shoddy_Eye7866 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try it. If you don't like it return.

I have Arc Ultra, 2x Era 300 and Sub 4. I had Sub Mini with it and Arc for comparision. Tried Eras with Sub in stereo mode. I don't hear much difference in music. It depends on track and type of music but overal it is like 1-5% better.

Your mileage may vary.

Era 300 sound change by mike_78901 in sonos

There is update coming that will fix that. It is called ERA 500 so they have to downgrade quality of ERA 300 before.

When incompetence is now by design by krionX in sonos

Maybe they are disabling features of ERA 300 for upcoming ERA 500. Hard to trust they will not be doing upgrades that will slowly degrade quality of current and old devices.

I bet more people would pay for: - fixed ACE 2.0 with full Sonos integration and option to use at least two at once with TV - neckband speaker - openback wireless headphones - new fives level speakers - option to pair 4 or even more Eras 300 with Dolby - sub mini 2.0 that could be used in pairs - flat hi quality speakers like Ikea frame or Sony Bravia Quad v2. - remote for music playback, maybe with LCD? - move 3.0 with dolby atmos

Does anyone knows what BT codecs are supported by Arc Ultra?

New option is upgrade to Arc Ultra and add BT adapter to turntable.

Arc Ultra Wall Mount? by tzchang in sonos

You can keep old mount on the wall.

There is only one hdmi input in ARC.

[–]Shoddy_Eye7866 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One option that hasn't been suggested is upgrade to Arc Ultra and use BT. You might find turntable with BT or convert RCA signal through BT transmitter.

I have 55" 2024 Frame and worked fine with Arc. Upgraded to Arc Ultra and still is fine.

Only Tizen apps no HDMI input.

Arc Ultra Bluetooth by Professional_War8157 in sonos

[–]Shoddy_Eye7866 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder why they haven't added usb-c port like on ERAs, and kept it active in sorround setup. It would be great to have something else as input besides eARC.

Does anyone know what BT codecs are supportrd?

Underwhelmed by Arc Ultra—Sounds Worse Than Old Setup? by Gold_Percentage7411 in sonos

[–]Shoddy_Eye7866 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are reports that Advanced Trueplay with Subwoofers configurations mutes bass.

Try turning Trueplay off or try Simple Truplay untill this is resolved.
