A:AnswerAmp has to be plugged into a outlet. I have never seen any system that didn’t require power. Sub is a four wire hook up from what I can remember . Two for right Channel two for left channel.
A:AnswerYou will be fine using these. I would suggest upgrading the connections in the daisy chain to water proof heat shrink rather than the water proof wire caps it comes with. Your wire will last longer and have a better chance of preventing corrosion through your wire run.
A:AnswerHi,
Thank you for your question. We do not recommend adding any additional speakers to the MAG6.1 system. Adding more speakers may result in an unacceptable load which could damage the Sonos amp. If you need more coverage or additional speakers for other areas, I recommend purchasing an additional MAG6.1 system. I hope you found this information helpful. If you have other 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.

A:AnswerHi,
Thank you for your question. The Sonos amp, satellite speakers, and subwoofer 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.

A:AnswerI would follow the suggested daisy loop. You can split both ways as long as one end is at the amp for termination and your splitting left and right channels. That’s all that really matters.

A:AnswerI would buy additional metal stake (kit come with 6). If you’ve already have existing concrete you would have to core drill the minimum diameter of the stake and and it will sit in place. You could add new concrete around the stake but if you do the core perfectly, no one should notice it was retro fit.
A:AnswerAny project with a line out and line into the amp will work. In terms of wireless and not hard lined… I don’t have an answer but it’ll that doesn’t mean there isn’t one.
A:AnswerHi,
Thank you for your question. Yes, the back of the Sonos amp has an Aux. input allowing you to hook up an additional source like a stereo receiver, cable box, etc. Keep in mind, the Sonos App includes many different streaming options. Your favorite radio stations may be available for you to stream using one of the many different streaming services without having to hook up an additional device.
