Good afternoon!
I’m in the process of renovating my basement. I’ve included a schematic layout and I need the best way to power and control the speakers I’ve installed. All speakers have been hardwired back to the AV rack in the utility room. They’re cheap Micca 6 Ohm in ceiling speaks I got off Amazon. And I’ll only be using speakers for music as I have a dedicated home theater elsewhere.
Ideally I would like to have 2 zones. The first zone would be in the gym where there are 2 speakers. The other zone would be in the remainder of the basement where there are a total of 5 speakers. My first thought was to have 2 Sonos Amps, but I understand that since I have an odd number of speakers in total (7), that would cause an issue here.
Second thought would be to get a multizone amp and connect 2 sonos ports to keep the zones separate. I also have an old S2 connect I could implement somehow. However, based on my initial research, this option would likely be much more expensive than the 2 Sonos Amps.
Looking for some ideas and input on how to accomplish.
