Guide: multi-room audio
Music throughout the home
Where to place speakers, which ones to choose and what to plan during construction for great sound everywhere, with nothing in sight.
Start with the living spaces
Kitchen, living room, dining room and terrace: that is where you listen most. Then come the primary bedroom, bathroom and office. With Sonos, each room plays its own music or the whole house plays together.
Three ways to hear without seeing
In-ceiling
Small Sonance speakers lined up with the recessed lights, in the colour of the ceiling.
Invisible
Sonance speakers hidden behind plaster or wallpaper: no grille, nothing to see.
On a shelf
Freestanding Sonos speakers, for an existing room or a guest room.
Hear it, don't see it
Outdoors and by the pool
Sonance landscape speakers in the garden beds and under the eaves, with a buried subwoofer, give even sound across the terrace without bothering the neighbours.
What to plan during construction
- Speaker wiring before walls and ceilings are closed.
- A ventilated spot for the amplifiers.
- A good Wi-Fi network: the music depends on it.

Frequently asked questions
Can I use Spotify or Apple Music?
Yes. Sonos works with most music services, right in the app or with AirPlay.
Do invisible speakers sound good?
Yes. They are designed to be hidden behind drywall and deliver clear, even sound in the room.
Can we add rooms later?
Yes, especially if the wiring was planned during construction.
