I have numerous sonos speaker all WIFI around house
I'm looking to purchase a sound bar of some type and wondered....if I buy sonos firstly can it connect via optical to tv output and secondly if it did would it the connect to other WiFi sonos speakers
Note my FIVE is old gen so we have to use S1 APP not sure if that makes difference also
Help appreciated

In generell it‘s possible to group rooms, even if audio source is tv mode of a soundbar. But to do so with your old Play5 Gen1 all devices have to be set up on the S1 system. So you would have to buy an older soundbar model that also supports S1 like the Playbar, Playbase or Beam1. https://support.sonos.com/en-us/article/sonos-app-version-compatibility
The other option (to use any soundbar you like) would be to switch to a S2 system by replacing your P5 ton a newer model.
