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: 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.
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.
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

When movies, TV, and music are your passion — you don’t want to just watch. That’s why there’s the Bose Smart Soundbar with shockingly immersive sound for its size. Dolby Atmos, proprietary TrueSpace technology, and upward firing transducers work together to intelligently analyze and separate instruments, dialogue, and effects, then place them throughout the room. Even overhead. It’s a captivating sound experience that goes beyond simply watching. A.I. Dialogue Mode automatically balances voice and surround sound for ultra-crisp vocal clarity.

Effortlessly enrich your entertainment experience with the latest generation of Beam, now with Dolby Atmos. Enjoy panoramic sound for shows, movies and games when the TV is on, and stream music radio and more when it's off.

The Bose TV Speaker is a small soundbar that clarifies speech and improves overall TV sound. Inside there are two full-range drivers angled to deliver wide, spatial sound, while the center tweeter specifically focuses on clarifying speech. And built-in Dolby decoding enhances the audio capabilities of your TV Speaker to deliver a more realistic and satisfying listening experience. Designed with simplicity in mind, a single connection to your TV has you up and running in no time. This connection can be either an optical audio cable (included) or an HDMI cable (sold separately). At just over 2″ (5 cm) tall, this TV Speaker is small enough to fit just about anywhere. Place it in front of your TV or mount it to the wall. Plus small LED lights on the front turn on and/or change color when certain features are enabled or when the volume is adjusted. The Bose TV Speaker also has HDMI-CEC, which allows the TV and soundbar to communicate when connected by an HDMI cable. So when you turn the TV on, the soundbar will automatically turn on too, and you can even continue using your current TV remote to control the volume of the soundbar. However, the Bose TV Speaker also has its own remote. On it, you can pair your Bluetooth device to wirelessly stream your favorite music or podcasts, enable Dialogue Mode to further elevate center vocals, or add a bass boost for some extra depth. And the Bose TV Speaker is Roku TV Ready certified. Meaning, it’s designed to work seamlessly with a Roku TV. When connected to a Roku TV via an HDMI cable, you’ll enjoy smooth, automatic setup, easy access to the TV Speaker sound settings in the Roku TV on-screen menu, and compatibility with the Roku TV remote. If you’re looking for even more bass or just want to expand your system, you can add a subwoofer for more theater-quality home theater sound. The Bose TV Speaker requires a wired connection and is compatible with the Bose Bass Module 500 or 700 (Bose Bass Module Connection Cable sold separately).

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!
