Please help me with speaker positioning. I currently use Beam Gen 2 and Sub mini with my 43” Sony TV. My wife watches TV series and movies daily. I’m more in music, both streaming and vinyl records, from a vintage Thorens TT connected to basic Yamaha speakers. I would like to emphasise more the music reproduction and keep the HT functions.
I added a plant of my room.
First option:
Should I go separating HT and music reproduction, still keeping in Sonos ecosystem, for example adding a pair of Era 100 or 300 connected to the turntable?
In this setup, could the HT part be used to reproduce music at the same time (especially the sub mini)?
Will this be beneficial giving the fact they will sits in the same room?
Could the Eras be in use also when watching TV? Would it make sense? Would be an issue if the speakers will be placed close to the turntable, so both will be on the left side of the TV?
Second option:
Add a pair of Era 100 as surround, keeping the music reproduction only from streaming on the Sonos Beam.
Quality-wise will this setup satisfying for music listening?
If this is the case, where do you recommend the place the speakers given the fact there is no power source near the couch, and no spots to place the surround read right speaker?
Thanks in advance for support. Gianluca
