    Incompatible with late-model LG television

    I bought the Ray to use with LG's latest 43-inch TV, in the UR9000 series. It seemed a decent pairing for use in an RV that couldn't fit anything much larger. However, I ran into a huge problem. The Ray has no method of integrating such that the LG magic remote can control the volume. Since the Ray lacks any sort of HDMI input, you're left with an optical connection only. Sonos' documentation (which their tech support kindly quoted when I reached out to them) alludes to the notion that there will be some sort of menu in LG's WebOS settings that will let you select a soundbar manufacturer, and that Sonos will be on that list, and that will fix the problem. That would be wrong. There's no such list in the current LG system. There's an on-off switch for an LG soundbar control protocol, which apparently LG feels Sonos should be supporting, but Sonos doesn't seem to have heard about this. The Ray went back to the store, an LG soundbar with a subwoofer came home, for a little less money. The LG does take up more space, but obviously it does work with the magic remote, and it sounds a whole lot better than the Ray did.

    Sonos Ray is not compatible with a Samsung - 65” Class S95B OLED 4K Smart Tizen TV. Cannot control volume with the TV remote. New TV and Sonos Ray delivered and set-up by Best Buy Techs

    Not sure if it was me or the product. But not having a remote was a issue. Having to go to the app on my phone was a issue and I didn't like the sound. I wanted more. More sound and more control.

    Love this soundbar. We also have the Sonos Beam, which was more expensive, but for our purposes (tv, music), I can’t tell a difference. I like the Sonos app and find their products easy to connect and use with the app.

    Don’t do much reviews but I had to on this one. Sonos made a good product with this one. Easy to set up and app is very simple to navigate thru. Would recommend to anyone who is looking for a sound bar for their TV.

      Hi there Donald,

      I understand you're having trouble controlling your TV's volume using your Ray soundbar connected via an optical cable. Let's troubleshoot this together! Here are some steps:

      Verify TV Settings:

      Make sure your TV's audio output is set to "Optical" or "Digital Out".
      Check if your TV has an option called "External Speakers" or something similar, and ensure it is enabled.
      Check Sonos App:

      Open the Sonos app, go to Settings -> System -> [Your Room Name] -> Home Theater -> Remote Control Setup.
      Confirm your TV remote is configured correctly. If not, follow the in-app instructions.
      Additional Tips:

      Try restarting both your TV and the Ray by unplugging them for a few minutes and plugging them back in.
      Ensure the optical cable is securely connected on both ends. john.milton

    Can’t be controlled with the tv remote. I can only control it with my phone which sucks for anyone else wanting to use it when I’m not around. I would have returned it but waited to long so now I’m stuck with a speaker I can’t use

    Sound bar works great. The cording is so sensitive and falls out every time you move it or adjust where it's at. Definitely needs better design for the cord attachments.

    Sonos Ray not connecting with may cell to work the controls for volume and change station. Whent to your store and I was told that I only had 14 days to be able to return for store credit or money back. I will never go back and I will complain to BBB and you are going to see me with signs letting people know that are visit your store in South Beach, not to buy because yoi don't backup the products that you sell.
