Sonos center speaker

First off, I'm fairly tech savvy all around, but definitely lacking when it comes to audio. I bought a new house that has a fairly robust Sonos system detailed below. Due to the lack of dialogue support from the multichannel surround speakers, sonos center speaker, I'm looking to add a center channel. I understand why you wouldn't add a soundbar to a surround sound system, but I don't know if the same holds true for Sonos center speaker and the Arc.

I would like to know if it is planned to allow the Beam to be used as a center speaker. I know that it plays three channels, but a configuration switch to play only the center channel would be great. The goal is to use some other speakers for the left and right channels. Because I already have some nice speakers and I would like to combine them with the Beam. If such a configuration is possible, I will buy a Sonos Amp to connect my speakers as left and right channels. Let me emphasize that my potential purchase of an Amp is determined by the availability of this functionality.

The super connect not necessarily having a center channel built in, but allowing you to pick on Sonos One, or Five, for the center channel. Or some new speaker to fill that roll.
