We just moved into a new house that has an existing sonos system. Owners before us powered in ceiling systems throughout the house (bedroom, living room, kitchen, basement) using 3 connect:amps, all of which were left for us. I’m trying to figure out the best way to complete the living room setup to use for TV surround as well as music.
Right now in the living room is 2 in ceiling speakers connected to a connect:amp. I want to complete the setup. It is a large open room with vaulted ceilings so will need something with decent power. The TV will be mounted over a fireplace which is in the center back of the room, and seating will be arranged in front of the fireplace with a left and right couch and 2 chairs facing the fireplace/TV.
My thoughts were
Option 1:
Buy a playbar to connect to TV for front
use existing 2 ceiling speakers for rears powered by connect:amp
Option 2:
Buy a sonos amp to connect to TV and power 2 passive speakers for front
use existing 2 ceiling speakers for rears powered by connect:amp
Which option will give me the most power and versatility for the large room?
Also, could I use the amp to power 2 passive speakers AND a 3rd party sub?
Thanks so much!
