Hi @Francesco V97.

Welcome, thank you for reaching out to Sonos Community, I’m here to help.

Yes, you can set up the Play:5 as surrounds.

By the way, if the two Play:5 has been used to a different wifi network before you need to factory reset it first.

You can follow this article on how to set up home theater surrounds speakers.

Let us know if it works. If you need help with any other information, please be sure to let us know.

Only if those PLAY:5s are gen 2. The first gen doesn’t have the 5Ghz antennas needed.
