  • QuestionDo i have to buy a receiver and a amplifier for these speakers? Can I hook these speakers directly to my existing sound bar without a amplifier or receiver?

    Asked by Revan.

    • Answer Hi, Thank you for your question. The Sonance MAG5.1R in-ceiling speakers are passive speakers, which means they require an amplifier or AV receiver to power them. They cannot be connected directly to a sound bar, since sound bars don’t provide speaker-level amplification. I hope you found this information helpful. If you have any additional questions, feel free to reach out to our California-based support team at 949-492-7777.

  • QuestionHow do I connect the subwoofer to the receiver ?

    Asked by Cole.

    • Answer Hi, Thank you for your question. The MAG5.1R subwoofer connects directly to your receiver with a standard subwoofer cable. Just run the cable from the receiver’s Sub Out/LFE jack to the subwoofer’s Line In, plug the sub into power, and you’re ready to go. I hope you found this information helpful.

  • QuestionCan these speakers be wall mounted?

    Asked by Berndog.

    • Answer Hi, Thanks for your question. The Sonance MAG5.1R speakers are purpose-built for in-ceiling installations. While it’s technically possible to install round in-ceiling speakers into a wall, we don’t recommend it. The speaker’s depth and mounting design are optimized for ceiling cavities, and most standard walls don’t offer sufficient space for a proper fit. If you're looking for a wall-mountable solution, Sonance offers a variety of in-wall speaker models specifically engineered for in-wall installations. These will deliver better performance and ensure a safer, cleaner install. I hope you found this information helpful.

  • QuestionCan I tie these in to my sonos home theater and will they work with the sonos app?

    Asked by Milton.

    • Answer Hi, Thank you for your question. As a standalone system, this package will not work with the Sonos app. These speakers require an A/V receiver to power them. To control these speakers with the Sonos app, you will need a receiver that features the "Works with Sonos" feature built-in, and may require the addition of a Sonos Port.
