Surround speakers

You can easily pair two speakers, such as two PLAY:5s, with a Sonos home theatre product to function as left 
and right surround channels in your Sonos surround sound experience.

If you have a CONNECT:AMP and speakers, you can configure the CONNECT:AMP for surround use. 

Both 

the CONNECT:AMP and the PLAYBASE/PLAYBAR must be wired in this configuration

—this is a 

requirement only when configuring a CONNECT:AMP for surround. It is not a requirement for normal use of 
these products.

Set up CONNECT:AMP surround

1.

Connect the PLAYBASE/PLAYBAR to your router with an Ethernet cable.

2.

Connect the CONNECT:AMP to your router, or to the PLABASE/PLAYBAR, with an Ethernet cable.

3.

Attach desired speakers to the CONNECT:AMP (power rating should be at least 75W for 8 Ohm 
speakers and at least 150W for 4 Ohm speakers.)

4.

Position the speaker connected to the 

Left 

terminal on the CONNECT:AMP as the left surround speaker in 

your surround sound setup.

5.

Position the speaker connected to the 

Right 

terminal on the CONNECT:AMP as the right surround 

speaker in your surround sound setup.

Note:

If this is a newly purchased CONNECT:AMP, be sure to add it to your Sonos 

system before attempting to set up surround speakers. 

Note:

Make sure your PLAYBASE/PLAYBAR is not currently configured with any 

other surround speakers. It can be configured with a SUB.
