Please tell me if my new sonos beam 2 will pair with my sonos play 1, sonos play 5 and sonos play 1 S1.

Thank you.

The Beam (Gen 2) is only compatible with the S2 app. So it will work with the Play:1 and One if they are also running on S2. But the Play:5 (Gen 1) is only compatible with the S1 app so it cannot be used with the Beam.

NOTE: If you want to add a pair of surround speakers to the Beam, follow the guidelines in this article:
