Hello

 

I have a Beam gen 2 and a sub mini. 
 

I would like to use my old surround speakers from Dynavoice with them in a surround system with my tv. 
 

Is that possible? Can I connect them to my Sonos system or do I need to buy new speakers. 

You can only use Sonos speakers as the surrounds for your Beam


If the Dynavoice are passive speakers then you would need a Sonos Amp to use them as surrounds with the Beam.


Only one? Can it separate the two channels from the tv sound?

Yes, 1 Sonos Amp will allow you to connect the 2 speakers to play rear left and rear right surround channels.


Can I buy one like this?


No, that is a Connect which does not include an amp to power passive speakers.  A Sonos Amp or Connect:Amp that is compatible with S2 is needed.

In addition, using an older Connect:Amp for surround duty has further restrictions.
