Hi. I have the Sonos amp powering two speakers for the TV. I also have the Arc and was wondering if there is way to play both simultaneously with TV or music. 
I have a Sonos sub as well and two Ones for surround. 
Thanks.

Not the way you want, I suspect. 

For the TV, you could connect the Arc to the ARC that you’re currently feeding your Amp, and it would take over as the front three speakers. Your Amp then becomes a separate ‘room’ in the Sonos software, and the TV input would be delayed by at least 75ms on the speakers connected to the Amp, which would be ‘grouped’

On the other hand, when streaming music, both rooms would be in sync, 100%.
