Hello everyone,

We are interested in purchasing the amp/in ceiling speaker set, plus an additional ceiling speaker set (total of 4 speakers + amp). How does the hook up work for this? Do we need to also purchase a sound bar as well? 
 

For reference, our living room is 27’x19’ and we are looking do a surround sound setup. 

Thank you in advance.

If you only want to use in-ceiling speakers for a Sonos home theater setup, you need to get four in-ceiling speakers and two Amps - one to power the front two speakers and one to power the two surround speakers. You can add a subwoofer to this setup to complete the 4.1 system.

The better option would be to get a Sonos sound bar like the Arc or Beam (Gen 2) and then use two in-ceiling speakers powered by an Amp as surrounds. Then add a Sub or Sub Mini to complete the system.
