I have a sonos arc, a Sub and 2 play 5 (2 Gen).

What are your recomendations for building a home cinema system with these speakers?

 

I can put the play 5 as surround speakers, but i can still listen to music in stereo with them?

With this setup will lost the power that a play 5 can bring in stereo music ?

 

Thanks in advanced for your attention!!!!

You can play stereo music, but the Arc will be playing the same as the Fives.  You can choose Ambient or Full volume for music sources from the Fives in the surround settings for the room.

I’d really prefer to keep the Fives for music and add surrounds to the Arc / Sub.

You could go cheap (but good) with One SLs, better with Era 100s or the Era 300s if you want the best and Atmos.

I grabbed an old pair of Play 1s I had sitting around for my surrounds and they are adequate.
