Cyknight Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 BluSound Heos Sonos Order of preference to me for sound quality. All three control very well/reliably, even Sonos - assuming you are just using it as a soundbar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c44me Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 Been happy with the Sonos but not C4 integreated (yet) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hardwareguy2068 Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 I have fought this as well and searched out many solutions.......I finally took @msgreenf advice and purchased Heos. Works perfect, sounds great and zero issues. msgreenf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zaphod Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 What do you folks mean by a C4 compatible soundbar? One that is IP controlled from within C4, or A Soundbar that can act as an audio endpoint, kind of like a Triad One or Music bridge? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyknight Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 I would assume a soundbar would be an active soundbar in this case (so yes, something controllable with amplification and speakers all in one) Obviously any PASSIVE sound bar and something like a Triad One would work as well.

But you would still need a C4 controller or Triad to receive the audio, would you not? Assuming that you wanted to play C4 music rather than audio from a TV or non-C4 source.

Assuming that you wanted to play C4 music rather than audio from a TV or non-C4 source. HDMI from controller vid switch to tV then to soundbar or video. If that's even desired to begin with. Could just be local TV use only, could be that there's distributed ceiling speakers but for TV sound needs to come from Tv etc etc etc Based on OP I just went with the assumption as previously written...
