Okay, so I hade a quite confusing question. I’m interested in getting a surroundsound system. I was thinking about getting a playbar. I have a pair of active speakers i would like to use as surround, is that possible with a connect? And if so, is it also possible to connect a sub to these speakers? Cause they have a sub output and I cant afford the Sonos Sub.
Would appreciate some help!

View originalA pair of active speakers connected to a Connect will not work as surrounds in a Sonos home theater setup. You either use a pair of Sonos speakers like the One SL or Five as surrounds or a pair of passive speakers powered by a Sonos Amp or Connect:Amp.
However, when used to drive a surround sound set up, the CONNECT:AMP and the Sonos Amp both have their subwoofer output turned off.
In order to use a third party Sub, you must use the Sonos Amp to drive a pair of front speakers.
Thanks for the fast replies, now I know
