What am i doing wrong with my home theater?

Ok so I’m somewhat new to this and the people at best buy made me believe that this would work but I’m hitting a deadend. 
 

here’s what I have

6 Sonos sl1

2 Sonos sub gen3

1 Sonos arc

i was trying to connect 1 arc 2 subs and 4 sl1. Currently it’s only letting me connect 1 arc 2 subs 2 sl1.

running this setup on Sony Bravia xbr85x900h

please shed some wisdom anyone.

You cannot connect more than two rear surround speakers to your Arc/Subs setup. The maximum number of channels you can get is a 5.2.2 setup.

Is there any other way that I can incorporate additional speakers using some connector or something? Just want to make sure I tried everything before I return em.

No, you cannot add any more speakers to your 5.2.2 set up. If you want more from your rear surrounds, you can replace your two One SLs with two Sonos Fives.

Why does anyone believe what Best Buy tell them about Sonos equipment?
