Integra and Onkyo have both announced firmware updates that allow select products to work with Sonos.
The new firmware update enables select Integra, Onkyo, and Pioneer ELITE receivers to utilize Sonos Volume Pass Through capabilities. The update allows users to control the receiver’s volume through the Sonos app on their phone or other device. No more need to worry about presetting volume levels on the receiver or potential issues related to the presence of multiple volume controls, and owners can control the volume from anywhere in their house.
The new firmware update is supported by the following Integra models: DRX-3.3, DRX-4.3, and DRX-5.3.
The following models will be automatically upgraded with the new functionality:
- Onkyo Models: TX-NR696, TX-NR797, TX-RZ740, and TX-RZ840
- Pioneer ELITE Models: VSX-LX304, VSX-LX504, SC-LX704, and SC-LX904
The updated AV receivers that are Works With Sonos certified can manage and route up to three Sonos Ports or Connects without a control system.
