Asked 6 years ago by Ao43.
- Answer Hi Aoak, Thanks for taking time to write us with your question. The Sonance MAG4.1 Outdoor System will cover approximately 1,000 sq. ft. of space. If you need more coverage, I would recommend our Sonarray SR-1 Outdoor System w/SR 2-125 Amplifier (Best Buy SKU # 6253978) or the Sonance Garden Series System w/SR 2-125 Amplifier (Best BUY SKU # 6341804).

QuestionNew home with no existing sound system. Will purchasing this package mean nothing else is needed? (Aside from WiFi) Also, is this something that can be set up by me, with limited electrical experience?
Asked 5 years ago by RR.
- Answer Hi RR, In addition to purchasing the MAG4.1 music system, you will need to buy direct burial speaker wire. We recommend 14 gauge 4 conductor direct burial wire. I would also recommend professional installation to ensure everything is installed correctly. I hope this information is helpful. If you require additional help, please give us a call at 949-492-7777 and ask for Tech support. We will be happy to help you out. - Sonance Customer Support Team

QuestionWhat is the Correct wiring for this Set up ? Subwoofer on 1 channel and 4 satellites on 2nd channel ?
Asked 5 years ago by Ed.
- Answer The wiring diagram is provided in the instructions. 2 of the satellites connect to the L channel and two of the satellites connect to the R channel of the AMP. The sub is actually wired into both channels in this setup. It's designed to maintain the proper impedance for the satellites in this configuration.

QuestionCan I use two 4.1 patio (8.2 total) and arrange it on a way that I can emulate a surround system for outdoor projector movie night? For example have the four speakers on front emulate L, Center (2) and R, and have four speakers behind for surround sound?
Asked 4 years ago by Doubt.
- Answer Not partnered with sonos amp. If you had a different amp with 8 inputs, then perhaps. You could run one 4.1 setup to the center channels on your amp, then the other 4.1 setup to the R & L.

QuestionWhat is the difference in the satellite speakers from this system to the 6.1? The 6.1 is cheaper, so are you just getting 2 more speakers or are the ones in the 4.1 better?
Asked 4 years ago by Dale.
- Answer Hi, Thank you for your question. The satellite speakers in both packages are the same. The MAG 4.1 package includes an IPORT XPRESS remote control for Sonos with four satellite speakers and one subwoofer. The MAG6.1 package comes with six satellite speakers, one subwoofer and does not include the IPORT XPRESS remote. I hope you found this information helpful. If you have additional questions, please call our California-based support team at 949-492-7777 and ask for Tech support. We will be happy to help you out. - Sonance Customer Support Team
