6” Ceiling speaker location in kitchen/dining room

If you are trying to cover the entire space 4 speakers IMO will not be enough. The Sonos Amp can accept up to 6 Sonos Architectural speakers by Sonance. A good idea would be to submit a diagram showing where you’d like to install speakers.

A key thing many miss while trying to save a few pennies is flexibility in the wiring. Put them in parallel and save $0.20 a foot on wire for the second set and give up the ability to adjust the setup for what sounds best.

Instead run a wire from each speaker back to the Amp location, then you can easily audition various stereo positions as well as mono.

The four ceiling speakers would be enough for for the kitchen area, leaving the bottom half of the room for other speaker options.

Six 6" speakers would be marginal in my opinion but decent for background or casual listening. Going to 8" will give you more sound while staying with one Amp.

Four ceiling speakers and an Amp in the kitchen,  plus a Pair of Fives in the bottom half of the room would be an excellent layout.

Thanks for the reply,

I had initially though as per the attached - The plan was always for background music, while we are Ware there will be limitations the room sizes are not massive ether.

I attach a revised plan - the colour dots signify the 6” ceiling speakers 

Thanks again

That would be a decent layout for background music. You could go with two stereo pairs and see how it sounds, mono might sound more even. Wired properly switching is just moving a few wires, making testing easy.

Thanks for the diagram. Know that all ceiling speakers will play the same music. You might also consider wall mounted volume controls for each speaker x 2 in the areas you have marked.
