If I have a smart TV with an HDMI ARC, would I be able to connect this AMP and two Sonos in-ceiling speakers to the TV and utilize BOTH the TV-sound AND the in-ceiling speakers for surround sound at the same time? Trying to bypass using an AV receiver. null

I believe you can do this. Sonos has very good free technical support so you should consult with them too.

Yes, but you’d have an underpowered center channel. What you could do instead is place a SONOS sound bar under the TV, then use the sonos amp to power your two surround speakers.

Either way, most TVs have the option to route audio only through line out or through both line out and the tv speakers.
