Two quesrions..

I habe a few sonos 1's scattered around the house right now. .. Workomf pretty good.

If i add a playbar, a sub and 2 sonos 1's as a 5.1 homw threatre in the living room..

For audio.. Will the entire livingroom setup show up as one speaker in the app or will I need to group each time to play music? And assumimg it does show up as one item. Can i group the home theatre witj the other sonos 1's and have music playing through all speakers in the livingroom as well as the rest of the house?

Lastly. If watchimg tv, and the sound is being output to the playbar via optical. Can i group that sound and olay it all aroind the house?

The living room would show up as one group. The surround Play:1s stay dedicated to the Playbar and Sub. You won't need to regroup each time. Yes, you can group other speakers throughout the house with the 5.1 setup. So whatever you're watching on TV can be broadcast to other speakers. Same goes for music you're playing on the 5.1 setup.

Perfect. You should be all set then.
