A:AnswerHello, and thank you very much for your questions! You can use our Amp to power them. You would need to run one Sonos Amp for each set of speakers if you'd like them to be able to play different things from each other. If you don't mind a certain group always playing the same audio, you may be able to run up to 2 pairs on one Sonos Amp, but the depends on the impedance of the speakers. You may possibly need speaker wire, however, the previous owner of the home probably left the speaker wire however, it's worth taking a look to see.
A:AnswerTony, if you mean can you Group the output of the Sonos Amp (with your own speakers) with other Sonos products such as a Playbar, Subwoofer, and Beam, the answer is yes. You can group as many Sonos products together and the music/audio will be in sync. I have my Sonos Amp connected to ceiling speakers installed by my home builder. I group them with my Sonos Playbar and Subwoofer often to have music played across the main level of my house.
A:AnswerHi, and thanks for your question. The Sub will pair wirelessly to one of your rooms. The Sonos Amp is designed to power passive speakers like in walls, bookshelf speakers, tower speakers, ext and give them the ability to be controlled by the Sonos app.
A:AnswerHey, there! Great question. You can hook up any passive speakers that use standard speaker wire to power/give them an audio signal. It looks like they accept bare wire or banana plugs so you should be fine with our Amp! **I searched the lates model details.
A:AnswerHi, and that you for this question. You could connect your Def techs to the Sonos Amp. Then, if you have Play Ones you can group them to play the same thing at the same time or different things in different rooms!
A:AnswerYes, but you would need a Y splitter to split the LFE to both subs from the one sub output. You don't need this to run Gen 3 subs, they run on their own and don't need a separate amp.
A:AnswerThis is exactly what we did. Bought this to power 6 speakers built into our home and patio and also bought the Arc sound bar to go with it. They work flawlessly together. We can have just music through any of the speakers and/or the Arc sound bar and control everything through the app on any phone/tablet/pc that is connected to it. Or do the same with the TV sound.
A:AnswerUnless you want access to the controls, this unit does not need to be outdoors, or in plain sight for that matter. I have this unit for my speakers around my pool. The unit is in my laundry room in the middle of the house, next to the WiFi. I used 14 gauge in-wall/burial-rated speaker wire to run through the attic... down the outside wall of the house... and underground to the pool. I'm using two sets (4 total speakers) of the Polk Patio 200 speakers in parallel. Amp is running in mono.
A:AnswerHi, and thanks for your question! Depending on the impedance of the speakers you can run 2 pairs of speakers on one Amp. Keeping in mind that any speakers that are plugged into the same Amp would always play the same thing at the same time. Another option would be to buy a multi-channel amplifier from another company and use the Sonos Port by plugging it into the amplifier. This would be a good option if you want all of these players playing the same thing, at the same time. If you'd like to have more control over which rooms are playing, when, and at what volume they're playing then multiple Sonos Amps would be the best solution for you.
A:AnswerIf you have the outdoor speaker wires still in place, yes. You simply hook up the two speaker wires to the Sonos Amp. I have two outdoor Bose speakers hooked up to my Amp and the sound is great. Plus, you have full wireless control via Sonos app.
A:AnswerI had the same setup and also got the outdoor Bose. Decided to go with the Amp to keep it all on one app and controls and avoid two separate systems.
A:AnswerHi, thank you for your question. The Sonos Amp can accommodate four speakers connected wired in parallel, as long as the speakers are 8 ohm. If you can ensure that these speakers are 8 ohm, and you can wire them in parallel, you should be fine. If the speakers are 4 ohm or 6 ohm, you would need to purchase a second Sonos Amp to accommodate all four speakers.
A:AnswerThere is a left and right line in RCA connection. You could plug a mic into that. Most of the demos online show a turntable being used. You could replace the turntable with a microphone.
