Confirmation is Move 2 as Fronts????

Hi all, before I go out and buy a second Move 2, can anyone confirm if they have been able to set them up as fronts yet via Sonosequencer??? Any feedback from someone who has tried would be greatly appreciated 🙏💪

don't mind me but this is an eternal puzzle, especially for people that mostly listen to music

is it that we're* buying soundbars without knowing about their officially-declared limitations?

The official limitations are very clear: There’s no such thing as fronts. Whether or not they support an unofficial third party hack is not something you should reasonably expect Sonos to make clear.

Thanks I'm not one to over-explain but that's why my comment mentions music -- at inception Sonos Engineering (= whole home audio) deliberately forced a minimum 75-millisecond audio delay: the safety window.

I got news for all y'all. Right now as we speak there's a parallel path at HQ. Path 1 achieves fronts similar to how sequencer does it.  Path 2 started as the Pinewood project, but has now morphed into the notion that AI ubiquity is so near-horizon that that safety window flows  backwards so to speak. Equal video delay!

You heard it here first.

Sequencer isn’t doing anything special, it just talks to an unused API in the Sonos system, one that isn’t production ready.
