Sonos Controller for Mac or PC
2-3
Alternate setup illustration (no open router port)
If you don’t have an open port on your router, you can disconnect your computer from the router and connect it to the Sonos
component instead. Then you can connect the Sonos component into the router port the computer was previously plugged
into (see BRIDGE example below).
Step 2: Place other Sonos components in the rooms of your choice
After connecting one Sonos component to your router, simply place other Sonos components in the rooms of your choice and
apply power.
• If you are adding a SONOS CONNECT:AMP, see "Connect a SONOS CONNECT:AMP..." on page 3 before applying power.
• If you are adding a SONOS CONNECT, see "Connect a SONOS CONNECT..." on page 4 for additional instructions.
Connect a SONOS CONNECT:AMP...
1.
Attach desired speakers.
• Your speaker’s power rating should be at least 75W for 8 Ohm speakers, and at least 150W for 4 Ohm speakers. Do not
connect speakers rated at less than 4 Ohms.
• Use your thumb or finger to firmly push the spring-loaded speaker connector post inward to reveal the connection hole.
• Insert the stripped end of the speaker wire into the hole, then release. The stripped portion should be caught firmly in
the connector post.
Note:
Connect the
red
(+) and
black
(-) terminals from each speaker to the corresponding
terminals on the SONOS CONNECT:AMP. Mismatching of polarities will result in weak central
sound, and a distorted sense of sound direction.
When making connections, ensure that none of the strands of your speaker wire come in
contact with an adjoining terminal on the rear panel.
