Curious about fhe AMP. What’s holding me of so far is the price tag. Got 2 top end Dynaudio Audience 72 SE speakers which are standing idle. Running 2 Play 5 (1st gen) in the living room, setup as a stereo pair (one Play 5 wired to my router), as well as a Beam. Using the AMP could I add the Dynaudio speakers (wired to the AMP) to the Play 5 speakers, thus running a seamless 4 speaker (2 Play 5 + 2 Dynaudio) configuration? Anything I should be made aware of? Possible constraints of such setup? Thks

Well, the power is in your control via the volume level slider. But if the speakers cannot be placed where needed for TV/movies, then the Beam is the better option for sure.

The thing is- I tried it once - connecting the TV (through this headphone channel output) to my amplifier- and I didn’t like the sound at all. I realize this headphone connection is crappy so I’ll try the AMP /Dynaudio solution. How does the AMP connect to the TV (Samsung?). Wireless oder cable?

I have the earlier version, the Connect Amp, that connects via a RCA stereo cable from the TV audio out jacks. In case of the Amp there are more options that will work better, via HDMI and/or optical cable.

But all will be wired connections.
