You can only add up to two Subs (one must be a Gen 3) and two surround speakers to the Arc for a maximum 5.2.2 setup.

You cannot add another Sonos speaker as a center channel. The Arc alone already acts as the center, front left, and front right channels.

You can group the Five with your Arc setup in the Sonos app, but you may experience a slight audio delay from the Five when playing TV audio.

So even if you would buy another Five it can only be grouped with the surround set "room” in Sonos. Grouping will cause a slight dealy on the grouped speakers with any TV-sound. Music will be in sync.
