“Can you use a receiver and a wired subwoofer with the arc soundbar.? There is nothing wrong with our old sub woofer and it does such a great job...or do we have to buy a new sub woofer to be compatible with the Sonos arc soundbar?”

Hi, and thank you for this question. You would have to use our Sub. The reason is that if there is another device (ie receiver) that is controlling the crossover we don't have a way for our soundbar to tell it what frequencies to send to the Subwoofer. Even if we did, we can't be sure that the receiver would be doing it at the right time or capable of even sending that frequency appropriately. We keep our ecosystem pretty tight to ensure the best experience possible!

The sound bar basically becomes your receiver. You would plug the sound bar from the single EARC port directly into your televisions EARC port. If you don’t have a television with one of those you can use a standard ARC port, however the audio will be compressed because it’s not capable of passing through that much bandwidth on a normal ARC. EARC only.
