Sonos Amp Multi Rack Mount | RKMTAWW1BLK
Purpose-built for professional Sonos Amp Multi installations, the Amp Multi Rack Mount provides a clean, space-efficient 2U rack configuration designed around the amplifier's airflow, installation and service requirements.
Rather than treating rack mounting as an afterthought, Sonos designed this mount specifically around Amp Multi. The result is a cleaner rack, less wasted space, simplified mounting and engineered clearance above and below the amplifier to support passive airflow.
Best suited to: custom residential audio racks, distributed-audio systems, high-zone-count projects, MDU installations and professionally managed Sonos systems.
Why Dealers Specify the Amp Multi Rack Mount
- Purpose-built for Sonos Amp Multi — designed specifically for the Amp Multi chassis rather than adapting it to a generic rack shelf.
- Clean 2U installation — converts Amp Multi into a standard rack-friendly installation with proper spacing built into the mounting system.
- Supports amplifier airflow — provides clearance above and below the unit to help maintain the convection airflow required by Amp Multi's fanless design.
- No separate vent panel required between units — helps reduce unnecessary rack-space consumption in larger distributed-audio systems.
- Faster rack integration — Amp Multi's flat-back chassis slides onto the mount for a more straightforward installation.
- Cleaner cable management — keeps the amplifier correctly positioned and aligned within the rack for easier wiring and servicing.
- Built for repeatable installations — particularly useful when deploying multiple Amp Multi amplifiers in the same equipment rack.
Designed Around Amp Multi's Thermal Architecture
Sonos Amp Multi uses fanless cooling, making proper airflow an important part of rack design. The dedicated Rack Mount creates the intended clearance above and below each amplifier while maintaining a compact 2U installed height.
This allows integrators to build denser Sonos distributed-audio racks without automatically inserting separate ventilation panels between every amplifier.
For higher-density systems, rack ventilation should still be considered as part of the complete thermal design. Sonos recommends evaluating rack space and ventilation carefully and recommends active cooling when deploying larger quantities of Amp Multi amplifiers.

Rack Planning
Amp Multi occupies approximately 1.5U as a standalone chassis. When installed using the purpose-built Amp Multi Rack Mount, the completed assembly occupies 2U.
The additional space is intentional: the mounting system creates airflow clearance around the amplifier while keeping the installation significantly cleaner than using generic shelves and additional vent panels.
Sonos advises that two Amp Multi units can generally be mounted together without supplemental active cooling, depending on the rack and ventilation conditions. For larger deployments, Sonos recommends adding approximately 1U of active cooling for every three Amp Multi amplifiers and evaluating the complete rack's ventilation.
Built for Multi-Amp Systems
The value of the Rack Mount becomes especially clear when Amp Multi is used at scale. A single Amp Multi provides eight amplified outputs and up to four configurable zones, so larger projects can quickly concentrate a significant amount of distributed-audio capacity into one equipment rack.
Using the matching Sonos Rack Mount keeps those systems consistent, serviceable and easier to document from one project to the next.
Dealer tip: For rack-mounted Amp Multi installations, Sonos recommends wired Ethernet for optimal network performance.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Sonos Amp Multi Rack Mount included with Amp Multi?
No. The RKMTAWW1BLK Rack Mount is sold separately from the Sonos Amp Multi amplifier.
How much rack space does Amp Multi require with this mount?
Amp Multi occupies 2U when installed with the dedicated Rack Mount.
Do I need a separate vent panel between Amp Multi amplifiers?
The purpose-built Rack Mount creates clearance above and below Amp Multi and is specifically designed to eliminate the need for separate vent panels between units. Overall rack ventilation and thermal load should still be considered when designing higher-density systems.
Can I use this mount with the standard Sonos Amp?
No. This rack mount is designed specifically for Sonos Amp Multi.
Should rack-mounted Amp Multi amplifiers use Ethernet?
Sonos recommends a wired Ethernet connection when Amp Multi is installed using the Rack Mount for optimal network performance.
Can Simply Controlled help size a multi-zone Sonos system?
Yes. Dealers can provide the number of audio zones, speaker quantities, speaker models and project requirements and Simply Controlled can assist with amplifier quantities, system architecture, rack planning and BOM development.
