Adding Surround Speakers

You can easily pair two PLAY:1, PLAY:3 or PLAY:5 (gen2) speakers with a PLAYBAR to function as left and
right surround channels in your Sonos surround sound experience. You can either configure surround
speakers during the setup process, or follow the steps below to add them.
• Make sure the Sonos products are the same—you cannot combine a PLAY:1 and a PLAY:3 to function
as surround speakers.
• Be sure to follow these instructions to set up your surround speakers. Do not create a room group or
stereo pair as these will not achieve the left and right surround channel functionality.
Using the Sonos app on a mobile device
From the Settings menu, select Room Settings.
1.
Select the room the PLAYBAR is located in.
