Can the Connect be used with/paired to the Arc?

I just bought an Arc with the One SLs to make a 5.1 channel system. I have a Klipsch sub from an old system. Can the Connect be used to pair up to the Arc? Is that possible? I couldn’t find anything online around that. I don’t want to drop $600 plus on the Amp. I might as well just buy the Sonos sub. specifically for that price.

 

Any insight is appreciated!

To drive the Sub channel? No. The only way to use a third party sub in a Sonos Home Theater system is to use the Sonos Amp to drive the front pair of non-Sonos speakers. That’s the only situation in a home theater context in which the subwoofer output is active.
