Overview
A built-in amplifier with Wi-Fi streaming drives passive speakers from the Sonos Amp, taking sound from apps, an HDMI ARC TV connection or a line-in source. The unit fits standard racks or mounts on a wall, and control comes from the Sonos app, AirPlay, a universal remote, touch buttons or voice through compatible smart speakers.
Owners of passive bookshelf, floor-standing, outdoor or architectural speakers can bring them into a Sonos multi-room system with one box. Direct digital input from the TV skips an analog conversion step. Expect to rely on an app and a network, since no display or tone knobs are described on the unit.
Who it's for
Living rooms with a TV and a pair of passive speakers, or patios with outdoor speakers, suit this amp. People who want physical source switching and no app dependence should stay with a traditional AV receiver.
Pros and cons
- Powers many passive speaker types
- HDMI ARC for TV sound
- Line-in for turntable or other source
- Streams over Wi-Fi or Ethernet
- Speakers not included
- Channel data in listing contradicts itself
- Wall mounting hardware not listed
- Control centered on app and connected devices
Performance notes
Volume headroom depends on how efficient your speakers are and on their impedance. The TV connection carries digital audio straight in, so no analog conversion adds noise. Streaming stability depends on the Wi-Fi or Ethernet link, and a wired connection avoids dropouts on busy networks.

Frequently asked questions
Does the Sonos Amp include speakers?
No. It is an amplifier that powers your own passive speakers, such as bookshelf, floor-standing, outdoor or architectural models.
Is the Sonos Amp a surround receiver?
The listing gives the audio output mode as stereo, while one channel field says 5.1, which conflicts. Treat it as a stereo amp with an HDMI ARC input for TV sound.
