Wayne, did you use the SONOS connected to the ONKYO inputs during this test, or did you just use the FM tuner or something when you were doing this?
Or, have you used your existing ONKYO amps in conjunction with the SONOS before? Like in your office or family room where you say you have existing amps?? If not, I would suggest you try this first before buying additional amps and setting the system up this way...
I am not that familiar with the setup of the SONOS, but the reciever (the ONKYO) is likely to expect a 'line level' voltage at the inputs, and not a 'speaker level' voltage, which is on the order of 10x the voltage of a line level input... This could adversely effect the quality of sound you get from the system, or at the very least, your ability to discretely adjust the volume.
If you have already done this, feel free to ignore my comments...
