- Legal and Warranty Information
A: I have it paired with my smart tv. And it goes into an idle/standby mode everytime I turn off the tv.
Q: Can you pair this with two Sonos Ones for surround sound?
A: Hi and thank you for your question. Yes, you can add Sonos One/One SL behind for surrounds and even Sub if you wanted.
Q: blue tooth available on ray sound bar?
A: Bluetooth is not available, but you can stream from your devices over wifi using Apple airplay, spotify connect, and others.
Q: Does the Sonos Ray provide any sort of water resistance like the Sonos Roam or Sonos Move?
A: Hi! Thank you so much for your question. Sonos Ray is not designed for water resistance.
Q: is the optical the ONLY way to connect my TV or can I connect my TV via bluetooth?
A: I returned mine because Optical was the only way to connect to my TV and the Sonos App was the only way to control the volume.
A: Great question! As long as the remote is IR (it probably is) its a breeze. In the app, go to settings -> system -> name of the room -> scroll down under Home Theater, you'll see the option for "remote control setup". - We'll walk you through it from there!
Q: Does this unit have an optical input?
A: Yes, the Ray connects via optical connection. Note that it doesnt have hdmi connection capabilities.
Q: Is this soundbar compatible with Samsung TV Model UN65DU7200D?
A: This soundbar is not compatible with any TVs as it does not have HDMI ARC. The only way to connect to a TV is via Digital Optical cable and because it’s an optical link features like volume control (via HDMI-CEC) will not work

Not just a Soundbar
The Sonos Ray is simply a game-changer! If you're looking for a soundbar that effortlessly blends incredible sound with seamless connectivity, this is it. The audio quality is surprisingly rich and powerful for its compact size, filling my room with crystal-clear dialogue and deep, resonant bass. But what truly sets the Ray apart is how effortlessly it connects to everything. Forget about tangled wires and complicated setups – you can stream music directly from your phone or other devices via Wi-Fi or AirPlay 2, or connect it to your TV using the optical audio input. It supports a wide range of music services, and controlling it through the Sonos app is a breeze. Plus, it works seamlessly with other Sonos speakers, letting you build a whole-home audio system over time. The Sonos Ray isn't just a soundbar; it's a smart, connected audio hub that elevates your entire entertainment experience. Highly recommended!

excelentes calidad de sonido y compacta
The Sonos Ray's design is minimalist and elegant. With its compact dimensions , it fits easily into most spaces without taking up too much space. Audio performance is where the Sonos Ray stands out in its category. Although it's smaller than the brand's other sound bars, it delivers surprisingly clear and powerful sound, especially in the mid and high frequencies. Its tweeter and woofer technology delivers an immersive experience that significantly improves the sound of any TV. The Sonos Ray is an excellent option for those looking to improve their TV's sound without breaking the bank. With a more affordable price than the brand's other premium sound bars, it's an excellent entry-level option for those looking for quality without compromising space or budget. I purchased it openbox and received it in excellent condition, with no issues.
