Hey all,
Looking for advice on arranging a new set up using a Connect:Amp Gen 2. I have a garage that I would like to have 2 indoor speakers, and 2 outdoor speakers (already there, Polk Atrium 4, all 8 Ohms). Some considerations:
- Would like to independently be able to control the max volume indoor vs outdoor, sound playing at the same time.
- Was planning on running the speaker line through 2x SVC100 to control the 2 pairs of speakers.
- I would prefer not to have the Connect:Amp located in the garage due to dust, insects, and cold weather. So was thinking of putting it about 50-60 feet away within the house.
Based on that, I was thinking of the following:
- Run a Left & Right 14g wire 60 feet from Connect:Amp to a gang box.
- Splice the lines into 2 for each Left/Right, and feed them into each separate SVC100
- Run 15 feet of 16g to each of the 2 speakers for each knob.
Would this cause any issues or should I do something different. For instance, run 4 seperate wires from the Connect:Amp as described here: https://support.sonos.com/en-us/article/connect-four-speakers-to-your-amp-or-connect-amp (which I can do, but if its the same as running a single line then splice into 2 at the end, then that's what I would prefer). But not sure what the difference would be between the 2 different ways.
