I have currently one Sonos play 3 and am looking at buying a Sonos beam sound at for a new Sony tv I was just wondering if I am able to connect the beam to the play 3 and use both speakers for TV sound?

Thank you for the reply, just to clarify would 2 play 3’s paired get rid of any delay, and if so why would it? And would the delay be massively noticeable?
You can add 2 Play 3s to the beam as surrounds and that will get rid of the delay that Chris mentions you would have if you GROUPED a Play 3 (or a stereo pair of Play 3s for that matter) to the Beam. This is because the surrounds are designed to play the video audio channel so don't delay the audio.
I would have thought that if you have a Beam and Play 3 in the same room and the Play 3 is playing the same audio as the Beam but 70ms behind it that would be horrible. But if, say, your Play 3 was in the kitchen and you wanted to continue listening to the TV whilst there but you can't hear the Beam or see the TV it would probably be ok,
