I have a Samsung frame TV mounted about my fireplace and the size of the TV, mantel and wood trim around the ceiling doesn't allow me to mount a sound bar under the TV.  I have two built in book cases beside the TV and the Sound bar is currently sitting on the left book case and I have two 100s behind the couch for surround and a Sub in the corner.  

I am looking for suggestions for a more balanced sound in my living room.  Does anyone know if you can connect a sound bar to the TV and a add a second sound bar to sit on the right book case.  I originally ordered an amp to connect to the TV and planned to place two Sonos 5s in the book case but I was told I needed the AMP with two hard wired speakers which my set up doesn't really allow.  I know I could pay a professional to come in and run wires through the wall but I am hoping to avoid that.

Any suggestions or ideas would be appreciate.

Have you looked at this solution?

Mantle Mount.

If that would not work for you, then the suggestion to use a Sonos Amp with passive speakers would be your best bet for a balanced sound.

 

Yes, the frame TV fits flush against the wall and I have about a 2” gap between the bottom of the TV and the fireplace mantle and If I move the TV any higher I have about 1-2” of space to work with which would look so high on the wall.  I might have no choice but with the current placement there is no way to mount the sound bar neatly.  

The Amp and passive speakers really sounds like what you are going to need in your case.

If there is room look at in-wall speakers or ones that will fit on your bookshelves. Hiding the wires and adding flush-mount access boxes and disconnects to both ends, banana plugs work well, is an easy task for an experienced audio installer. Might get a discount if you bundle the purchase and install.
