is it possible to use the HomePod as rear surround speakers and a hifi system as front pair of speakers?

I have an excelent stereo system that I use as main output for the TV and Apple TV.

Would it be possible to use the HomePod as rear surround speakers, my current hifi system as front pair of speakers, and Apple TV 4K controling the rear output through the HomePods?

Hello gustavolopezanton,


We see that you're looking to set up HomePods as a stereo system. While we can't speak to your other system, you can make use of HomePods for a home theater setup. See the following:


Set up home theater audio with HomePod and Apple TV 4K - Apple Support


There are some additional links outlining how to set things up with the Home app, as well as using HomePods with Dolby Atmos if you have a compatible system.


Thanks for using Apple Support Communities!
