Hello all - Any help on my question is greatly appreciated, I am a novice in the home audio space.
I want to set up a Sonos Amp to run 4 outdoor speakers in parallel. 2 Bose Environmental 251’s on the deck about 10 feet from the Sonos Amp. And 2 8ohms rock speakers in the backyard about 100 feet away (cable will run ~150ft), using 14ga buried wire.
Is the Sonos Amp powerful enough to handle this and properly send power to all speakers?
Considering I want to use the Bose 251’s what size rock speak should I get to over overwhelm the Sonos Amp?
Thanks for your consideration,
Jonathan

Without more information on the rock speakers you plan to use I couldn’t say for certain, and you may do well to reach out to an AV professional before proceeding further.
