Can I stream using Bluetooth?
Amp does not have Bluetooth connectivity but streams audio content over your WiFi network. Internet access allows you to stream higher fidelity audio over greater distances, group or pair Sonos speakers and more.
What is the damping factor on Amp?
The damping factor is approximately 400 with an 8-ohm speaker.
How many passive speakers can Amp power?
Amp can power two pairs of 8-ohm nominal passive speakers wired in parallel. Amp can power three pairs of Sonos Architectural by Sonance wired in parallel.
Will Amp power a pair of 6-ohm speakers and a pair of 8-ohm speakers?
No. All speakers must have the same impedance rating and be wired in parallel.
Can a single Amp act as two zones?
No. Each Amp acts as one zone, meaning all speakers wired to a single Amp will play the same content at the same volume.
Can I connect my TV to Amp and wire four speakers, two front and two rear, if all are 8 ohms?
This setup requires two Amps, one to integrate the TV and power the front speakers and another to power the rear speakers.
Can I connect my computer to Amp through HDMI and control volume and functions through the computer?
If your computer outputs audio through an HDMI ARC connection, you can use it to control Amp. Additionally, Amp supports optical SPDIF to HDMI ARC adapters for compatible devices.
Do I need to use the banana plugs or can I do a straight wire connection?
For best sound and reliable performance, we recommend using banana plugs. Amp comes with custom-designed banana plugs and works with any standard banana plug. Amp can also accommodate a straight wire connection with 10 to 18 AWG wire.
If I connect a pair of outdoor speakers and a pair of indoor speakers to the same Amp, will all speakers play at the same time?
Yes. Amp is a single-zone product, which means all connected speakers will play the same content at the same volume.
Can Amp connect to a multi-channel AV receiver?
No. Amp only has speaker outputs. To connect an AV receiver to Sonos, you would use Sonos Port.
Is the 125 W/channel a peak rating or rms/continuous?
Amp provides 125W continuous average power sine wave, into an 8-ohm load, both channels driven.
Can I use my voice to control Amp?
Amp supports voice control when connected to a voice-enabled device, such as Sonos One, Amazon Echo Dot or Google Nest.
What is the difference between Amp and Connect:Amp?
Amp is more powerful than Connect:Amp, supporting 125 Watts per channel versus 55 Watts per channel. Amp features HDMI ARC input for TV integration, allows control with Apple AirPlay 2, and supports Trueplay when powering Sonos Architectural by Sonance. Both Amp and Connect:Amp have RCA line-in options.
Can I use the Sonos S1 Controller with Amp?
Amp is designed for the latest generation of the Sonos app (Sonos S2).
Can I use two Amps for home theatre?
Yes. You can use two Amps in a home theatre setup: one for your TV front speakers and one for surround sound. However, there are wiring limitations. The Amp powering your surround speakers cannot be wired to the network unless the Amp powering your front speakers is also wired.
