Your PS5 is upside down.
The upside down PS5, the way the TV is hung to the wall off centered from the console…I don’t trust this review 😅
For those who are planning to set Ray as a PC speaker, I can tell you it's a nightmare and all-in-all it felt like a stereo speaker for 300EUR, and if your mobo does not have an SPDIF port, you'll need to buy a soundcard with a TOSLINK/SPIDF out so that's +$58-$115 on top, and the worst part, I would get constant static sounds after 15 minutes while gaming (using the SPIDF module plate, not the best idea) even though all drivers were up-to-date including the USB/Audio fixes, so if you are planning to buy for your gaming rig it's a bad idea, but if you are on a budget for a soundbar for your TV meh! maybe consider something else with the same price range with better/extra features 🙂
I love the Sonos Ray. In my comparison, the Ray blew my JBL 3.1 system away, even without sub.
Why create a product like this when there is the beam
No disrespect but I can't take your review seriously when you can't even instal the PS5 base correctly. There are instructions too. Beam or Arc is the way to go.
Get the Vizio. That comes with a sub, two additional speakers, and hdmi and optical plug. It’s $250.
How could you forget to mention that most modern TVs, without infrared remotes, can’t change the volume on this? Unbelievable that this was not said.
The fact is without hdmi means you can’t control the sound bar with the TV. Hard stop. 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼
Thank you Ty.
Better just to but a gen 1 Sonos Beam, its not much bigger, has a wider side stage and HDMI, can get one at a similar price…
Might want to flip the ps5… It's upside down
Ps5 is upside down🤦🏻♂️ true tech people over cnet😂😂
1 hr add 4 min vid WTF
thanks for showing how big the subwoofer is. Hope they release the sub mini soon!
The missing HDMI is the missive mistake as that would have cost less than £5. So cannot use it TV remote to control all volume. So many will return once they find out cannot use my own remote.
Hey CNET people, how come you NO LONGER have comments on your online articles?
I'm still using the Pioneer SP-SB03 that CNET recommended years back. Still sounds fantastic and people always compliment the sound when they hear it. I own two of them now, one for my PC and TV and I'll use them until they die or I do.
I have two Sonos One’s as a stereo pair for music, and when watching a movie I airplay the sound to them. Works great.
Seems like a commercial for Sonos
you put a CNET logo over a RevZilla video?
I’ve seen stranger things but that ps5 being upside down is looking pretty strange.
How can we trust this guys tech advice when he has his PS5 upside down? 🤦♂️
I would not choose Sonos but the PS5 is upside down 😂
PS5 is upside down 🙈

No HDMI = no Dolby Atmos, no CEC, no thank you
No aux biggest mistake I have ever made
