How to play only the surround speakers?

i Have the playbar, a sub , and two Sonos ones in a 5.1 configuration. I am moving into an apartment and to lessen the noise at night when I want to listen to music, I just want to listen to the Sonos one pair in stereo.

I see no option to turn the playbar off I can only turn sub or rears off. I’d like to be able to just move the ones into the kitchen sometimes and just listen to them.

What is the easiest way to do that?

The only way to do this is to detach the two play 1s from the Surround sound set up and set them up as a stereo pair . You will need to give this pair a separate room name. You would then need to swap them back and forth between the rooms in the Sonos app, re-pairing them as a stereo pair for the kitchen or as surrounds for the Lounge every time you want to listen to either TV or Music. Not a a quick thing to do :L(

Or buy a second set of Play 1s or Sonos Ones 😃
