Question

help with ceiling speakers and connect amp

In our new home we have 16 built in ceiling speakers: 6 speakers are connected to 3 connect amps, the rest seem to be not connected. What do I need to buy to connect all speakers to the Sonos system.

    Depends on what you want to do, more connect amps, a connect and non-sonos multi-channel amp or add more speakers to your current amps, possibly with impedance matching units.

    Yell us the result you want and someone can help.

    Ideally would like to add more speakers to existing connect amps. But don’t know whether they are 8 or 4s. Don’t know how to check. And read on the web that some impedance matching units don’t work with Sonos.

    Hi, similar issue. Rear speakers aren't recognised in the system for the Family Room. Only the Sound Bar is recognised. Diagnostic report number is 2034638430.

    Can you please help?

    A inexpensive multimeter will give you the speaker impedance.

    Search here and you'll find a number of impedance matching units that work with Sonos. If teh forum search fails to be helpful try a "site:" option with the search engine of your choice.
