What Ceiling Speaker is for What Room. Does Room size Matter for size of ceiling speaker? 

Small Rooms Smaller spaces such as a bathroom or small kitchen do well with just one single stereo speaker. This type of speaker has a combined left and right channel for greater stereo separation, and being one speaker aesthetically suits smaller rooms.

Large rooms such as a living room or an open plan layout such as a kitchen/diner, are best suited to either a pair of larger sized speakers (8 inches) or 2 pairs of medium sized (6.5 inches). The latter 6-inch option is great for homeowners who are trying to evenly distribute their audio in a large space.

Very Large Rooms. If you are looking to occasionally use the space as a social gathering, dinner party etc. or are simply looking to achieve the best possible audio; we recommend installing a larger (8-inch) speaker. Being a physically larger driver, it can push out more air and thus provide deeper bass than a similar 6-inch model.

What ceiling speaker should I place in my Bathroom or Small enclosed kitchen? Smaller spaces such as a bathroom or small kitchen do well with just one single stereo speaker. This type of speaker has a combined left and right channel for greater stereo separation, and being one speaker aesthetically suits smaller rooms.

As the aforementioned rooms can produce a lot of steam, heat or moisture, it’s important your speaker has resistance to these elements!  tip: You could also you play one  or sonos one for your bathroom since it is humidity resistant.

Can Sonos Powered ceiling speakers be used as surrounds to your SONOS playbar or SONOS playbase. or SONOS BEAM? 

It’s important to note that if you have a Sonos PLAYBAR, PLAYBASE or BEAM in your living room already, it is possible to use ceiling speakers as your rear speakers. If you ceiling speakers, have angleable tweeters then angle them towards you to ensure the sound is pointing towards where you sit. HOWEVER if this configuration. BOTH THE CONNECT-AMP AND PLAYBAR/BASE/BEAM have to be wired to the network with an ethernet cable. Failing which the sound will not be synchronized.

In-wall speakers are also a great alternative to standalone rear speakers as they too sit flush, but instead in the wall. To configure either of these options correctly, the Connect:Amp and PLAYBAR must be wired directly to your router using an ethernet cable. Alternatively, the Connect:Amp can be connected directly to the ethernet port in the back of the PLAYBAR, whichever option is more convenient. Your Connect:Amp’s settings must also be configured slightly differently.

Can I add a subwoofer to my ceiling speakers? Adding a subwoofer to your set up will do wonders for the depth and rumble of the sound. We recommend using the Sonos Sub – simply just plug the Sub into power and then “Add a Sub” to your chosen room in the Sonos app and follow the steps. It is also an extremely powerful Subwoofer for the price you pay. However, if you’d prefer to use a different Subwoofer, the Connect:Amp also contains a Sub Out for direct connection to your own Subwoofer.
