Setting/using ROAM with S1 system; same time, same playlist


I want to buy a ROAM and use it with my 6 other speakers, most of them older so I use S1 not S2. (I think all but 1 are compatible with S2 but I use S1 to get that 6th speaker working.) 

anyway, would like to add the ROAM (as a 7th speaker) but think it can only be used on S2. So I’d have two apps open at same time (huh?) and they’d be playing different music, right? 

Want 1 more speaker that I can ‘roam’ with while my other 6 are playing. 

Will this be possible OR will I have to move my 5 speakers over to S2 plus at the Roam to make 6 only?

Roam/Roam 2 portable speakers are Sonos App (S2) system only and cannot be used on S1 - here is a list of devices that are either S1, or Sonos App (S2) compatible, or both…

thank you. I don’t know which speaker type or model I have. is there a place where sono’s has them listed by picture?

It’s usually on the device near to the serial number - it’s also shown in your online Sonos Account too under the ‘system’ tab… here:
