Love the Sonos "ecosystem." Easy set up and integration with the Play:1s I have in other rooms. I use the Sonos Controller app on my phone to merge all the speakers and can listen to music or audio books while moving around the house doing cleaning, laundry, whatever - when I don't want to be tied to one room. I used the Line-In port to connect the Play:5 to a TV for better sound, although this is not something Sonos uses as a selling point. Takes some adjusting of TV audio settings but then works well.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I prefer to use the shortest cable that will do, to avoid a jumble of tangled cables, so I have short cables. This one still qualifies as the shortest for its particular use, even though it is 2 meters (6.5 feet).

A fast charger for my iPhone and in the place where I need it.
And it is so cute - a mini charging block (like the larger one for my MacBook Pro).

Wi-Fi is not so good in my house so when my ISP had a sale, I had them add Ethernet ports to some of the phone outlets (the house has CAT 5 wiring). With the 8 port Netgear switch, I am able to have wired Internet connections for the main Ethernet in and out to TV, Apple TV, Blu-ray player, Sonos Playbar, and an old computer to run a doggie cam - making for fast and reliable Internet connections. Netgear is easy to connect and good tech support is available by phone if you need it - just register your switch with them online.

I bought 3 to connect the satellite box, the Apple TV and the Sony Blu-ray to my new Sony 4K TV. Measure the length from your TV to the inputs before you buy.

I use this cable to connect my Sonos Playbar to my Sony 4K TV - it is the right length for my set up and works well. (TV wall-mounted above an armoire and Playbar on top of the 70" high armoire.) Measure before you buy to be sure you get the right length for your set up.

I have the Playbar sitting on top of a 70" high armoire in my bedroom, with a 49" 4k Sony TV hanging on the wall above the armoire. There is no screen on the Playbar that I need to read, so it is good in this placement. The sound is great and it has so much "built in" besides the speakers. This is the only Sonos product I own but now I am thinking of adding more speakers in other locations (it is wi-fi, not bluetooth).
I downloaded the Sonos app (which you have to do to set it up - I use iPhone but it is also available for Android, I think). Set up is very quick and easy. Through the app, you have access to many many free radio services, and to sign in to services you pay for (like SiriusXM, and many music and talk services). I can also play the music I have on my iMac computer through the Playbar using the iPhone app to control it.

MY TV is on the wall above a 70" armoire, so the sound bar is on the armoire. At that height, I cannot see the display on the sound bar so I returned it.

I have this TV wall-mounted (slightly angled) above a 70" high armoire in my bedroom. Good viewing angle to watch while lying in bed. The TV looks good on the wall, and the picture is great. Sharp, good color.
The only thing I miss from my old TV is that this one does not show the volume level on screen.

This Sonos Playbar soundbar lets you connect speakers in different rooms over Wi-Fi.
 

I have been experiencing an approximate 3 second sound loss every so often and I was wondering if anyone else has experienced it. I don't know if it's my Sonos sound bar my iTunes (which it never happened with before) or my Samsung 4K television :/

Is this sound loss or a lip-sync problem? Either way, check out Sonos Support online, or call them - they provide great technical support:

I had a home theater system in my last home, but move 9 months ago and havent' been able to find anyone that can set up my home system since.

I suggest you call the Geek Squad, or check Yelp recommendations online for what service may be available in your area. (Google search, or go to yelp.com and search.)

Repair myself or have a tech repair?

My 50 inch Sony Grand WEGA just went black and silent. Flashing red light indicates and manual indicates I need to replace the lamp, XL 2400. Is this something I should attempt myself or have a tech come out to fix. Also is this lamp available in-store, or do I need to order it. Following the instruction manual, lamp came uot easily.
I think youn will not get an answer here. I suggest you call the store and ask these questions, or call Sony Support and ask.
