I think I already know the answer to this, but I am going to ask anyway in the slim chance / hope that I am wrong .
Equipment in Question
Sonos Arc (soon as it’s released)
Denon AVR x3300W
Samsung 65” Ks8000
Will I be able to keep all my current inputs (6 in total) to the Denon as it currently is and then run a single HDMI cable from Denon output HDMi to either the Sonos Arc directly or the Samsung OneConnect box and have it work ? or in a perfect world Dolby Atmos?.
From what I have found in preliminary research, due to the KS8000 not having eARC or as far as I am aware the ability to pass through Dolby Atmos, if the above scenario is achievable I will only be stuck with DD to the point that a standard Sonos Playbar would produce the same quality and audio formats (at a much reduced cost)?
To save time, I am fully aware that a HDMI switch would be more benifical in this situation however I am trying to see if it will work with minimal disruption to my current setup, as the Denon also supplies a feed to another room.
P.S - to anyone interested why anyone would do such a thing, the reason I am switching from my wired dedicated 5.1.2 atmos system onto the Sonos route is the recent arrival of an additional little lady our home.
