Sonos Arc Ultra + 2x Roam 2 - Home Cinema

Hello all!

I own an Arc Ultra for my small living room. I am looking to make a Home Cinema with 2 x Roam 2. Will I be able to do it?

 

I am thinking since the living room is small, 2 Roam 2 could be more than enough, and I will be able to use them as portable speakers for the terrace.

 

Please, let me know if you think the set up (Arc Ultra+ 2 x Roam 2) is meant to be a home cinema.

 

Thank you so much!

Era-100s are fairly small, and make excellent surrounds.

Dimensions: Height: 7.19 in (182.5 mm) Width: 4.72 in (120 mm) Depth: 5.14 in (130.5 mm)

Changing the mode of a speaker (must be done in identical pairs) from surround to conventional is not a quick process and folks rarely find it practical after a few swaps.

Try two Era-100s as surrounds and a Move 2 or Roam 2 on the patio.
