Setting up a new outdoor pool and patio speaker set up.   I want to use Sonance SGS 8.1 Garden Series or Sonance - SR1 Sonarray Outdoor Speaker system with a Sonos - Amp 250W 2.1 Amplifier.   Will this work?   Do I have to add any other devices to stream Apply Play through the Amp?   Also, if I want to expand the system can I use the Sonance SGS 4 SAT Pack Garden series and ties directly in this set up?

 

Thanks in advance!

Welcome to the Sonos Community!

I’m afraid I don’t quite understand - both of the Sonance speaker sets you mention come with their own amplifiers, so if you a bought Sonos Amp as well, you’d be buying more than you need.

Perhaps instead you should opt for a Sonos Port to act as a source device for those Sonance systems?

Do I have to add any other devices to stream Apply Play through the Amp?

Both Amp and Port support playback of AirPlay.

Also, if I want to expand the system can I use the Sonance SGS 4 SAT Pack Garden series and ties directly in this set up?

I don’t know - you might be better off asking Sonance directly.

Thanks in advance!

You are most welcome!

I hope this helps.
