Question in short: Sonos connect to preouts of receiver, Sonos connect amp to rear speakers and wireless rear speaker kit. Will that work? How well?
So I have been researching a bit and haven't found the answer. I did call a Sonos rep from a Best Buy store to verify and he gave me an answer but want to hear your opinions on it.
Right now I am sold on the idea of Sonos for multi room applications and want to integrate it into my system. To do so I would connect a Sonos connect to my receiver that way I can play all of my sources through my Sonos system throughout the house.
My question is, instead of using a terrible wireless rear speaker kit that only outputs 15 watts per channel, can I use a Sonos connect to the rear speaker preouts on my receiver, sending a signal for left and right to a Sonos connect amp to power two rear speakers I have?
Now I'm sure there will be some audio delay that I will have to compensate for at the receiver end and also no volume control on the receiver for rear speakers, I would have to use the Sonos app, but is it a good alternative to wireless rear speaker kit??
I would imagine it would plus it'll help me control volume of rear speakers pretty easily and adjust on the fly if a soundtrack is too low volume.
Don't worry about Price, I work for Magnolia and get a stupid discount on Audio gear (Sonos included).
