It might be nitpicking, but…
…..the terminology ‘stereo – L/R’ is not correct here.
Each PL connection (and the cable) carries two ‘channels’ – call it 2x ‘mono’, if you like.
This has been so since the first BSys4-based audioprocessor was launched almost 10 years ago.
(Sound from an older audiosystem works different—— even the last of the BSys3 system hat something similar)
Each of these channels can be assigned to a certain speaker just like you need it.
1: You ‘tell’ each PL output to which speaker it is assigned.
2: Afterwards you choose which ‘role’ this output represents in the setup.
See this example from my V1:
1: A BL3 has been connected to the left output of the PL socket 2.
2: This output here serves the role of left front channel.
With the option of creating different Speaker Groups you can can let the same speaker play another role in a different Group. As an example for a different seating position you could let it be the right front channel together with a speaker that otherweise is one of the surround speakers, but then plays the role of the left front.
This means that you can daisychain from each pair of the same sort of speaker (the BL18’s and the BL3000) – the roles for each speaker are set in the app of the Theatre (and not on the speaker itself as with a pure 2 channel audiosystem/master).
The sub would have it’s own PL connection.= You have plenty/enough PL outputs to make what you want to!

Edit.
With the adapter that Steve shows one could even sort of daisychain on each side (from front to back), if both speakers had 8PIN PL connections. This way one would have two seperate channels going out. All there is to do is set each of these up in the app according to speaker type and role.
