(reposting in the correct forum - apologies):

 

Hi - I’ve read a few threads, but would like to clarify:

I have two ceiling speakers (DALI Phantom E80) which are 6 ohm. I have a single third ceiling speaker in an adjoining en-suite bathroom (Monitor Audio AWC265 T2) which is 8+8 ohms.

I suspect I can’t wire all three to one Sonos Amp as I would drop below 4 ohm on one channel- is that correct? (I’m new to all this…)

Thanks

That is correct.  Connecting those speakers would result in a resistance which is below the 4 Ohms limit.

You could look into an impedance matching speaker switch, that might get you what you are looking for.
