Sonos Amp with 4 Sonance AS38RS Speakers

We have a job that requires 4 in-ceiling Sonance AS38RS Speakers. 
Another zone would have 2 Sonance AS38RS Speakers.
I just want to know will a Sonos Amp be able to handle 2 or 4 of these speakers or should we use a passive amp and Sonos port?

AS38RS Impediance is 10 ohms nominal; 8 ohms minimum (100W max) each

AMP is more robust than many expect. AMP is rated for 4-Ohm loads and will gracefully drive speakers that have brief dips below 4-Ohms. Driving two of your 10-Ohm (with an 8-Ohm dip) per AMP channel is a piece of cake.
