I’ve searched and found mixed advice on this.

 

can I connect 2 sets of Bose 51 environmental speakers to the new sonos amp? Also should they be wired in series or parallel?

 

thank you in advance

Yes, the Sonos Amp should work just fine with four Bose 51 speakers.

They should be wired in parallel like this:

Thanks so much for the reply. Appreciate you taking the time.

 

so speakers say 4-8 ohms but wired like this they’ll be ok or better in series?

Sonos doesn’t recommended wiring the speakers in series:

Thank you for the advice. I will wire them up like this. I do hope that the speakers will be fine with the amp.
