Hi,
I’m remodeling my house down to the studs. I’m planning on doing in ceiling speakers in family room, kitchen, mater bath. The Sonos in ceilings are too expensive so I was going to do non-sonos in ceiling connected to Sonos Amps. We entertain a lot so I want to be able to have music on in the living room, kitchen, family room and backyard, but I want to be able to control which is on when and sound levels to each speaker set.
Can you pls advise on what I what I think I should buy?
Family room w large tv (this will be the “media room”:
I was thinking sound bar and in ceiling dumb speakers.
- Can I connect the Arc to dumb in ceiling speakers? do I need an Amp for that? will there be any audio lag?
I think the Arc surround package might be a better way to go, esthetically, I’m not keen on having exposed speakers in the corners of the room.
Living room w Samsung Frame 55”
This will be the room I’m sure I’ll watch weekend sports while the kids are in the family room watching Disney+. this will also be a room that will need music for entertaining. Due to the ceiling structure, I can’t do in ceiling speakers.
- Was just thinking an arc for this, but If I’m just watching sports and music for parties is that overkill?
Kitchen:
2 in ceiling speakers to a Sonos Amp.
- To save $ would you recommend I go with a Connect gen 2?
Backyard:
two speakers mounted off the kitchen.
- Can I run these off the same amp as the kitchen and have the ability to turn them off, while still playing music in the kitchen?
Master Bath:
dumb speakers with a Sonos Amp.
- Do I really need two speakers for a bathroom?
