Great info as always guys, though I think you missed the boat in one aspect. That being that for anyone with an arc, plus sub and using Sonos Fives as the rear speakers- we cannot use the headphone jack in that set up. As I’m sadly, already aware that because of this, without buying the port (I’ve already spent so much, that seems excessive to add a port) I’m out of luck. Except if I have the Roam, which just arrived a few days ago. I suppose you did go into how that can work, which I’m grateful for. But because some may not be aware that turntables can’t just be added when the Fives are as rear speakers, that info could have been helpful. Keep up the good work mates!

Thank you for this video and these very detailed explanations. What connection does it take to connect a stereo 5 sound system to a vinyl player?

Great video! I've ordered the Sonos Move and the Port & should get these shortly. Currently I have a a Sony turntable (no preamp) and a CD player connected to an Onkyo AV Receiver (TX-NR636.) My plan is to stream CD and Vinyl to the Move. The Onkyo has: a digital In Coaxial jack and also "Line Out Zone 2" jacks, the latter for connecting a receiver in another room. Can I use the Zone 2 line out and connect to the Port to thereby stream the content of the Onkyo? Is the Digital Coaxial jack on the Onkyo of any use with the Port? Many thanks!

Great. So to play your vinyl on your wifi Sonos system you just need a Sonos AMP or PORT, depending on your turntable is pre-amped or not? You can even group the speakers to play your turntable output on? I still have a Sonos connect... old product. But does the quality of streaming and AD conversion is better on the newer products?

Can a "Works with Sonos" certified reciever replace the Sonos Amp \ Port if I already have a Sonos Arc? For example, setting the reciever "Works with Sonos" configuration to the Arc and plug in the turntable to CD audio in.

Hey team! I have a Project Debut Carbon DC, a Pyle PP444 preamp, and my Sonos Port. I’m having a difficult time getting sound with RCA cables going from turntable>pre-amp>Port. Suggestions?

How big is the sound quality drop, when you listen with a SONOS Roam? Do you hear the difference between listening to a vinyl or just playing the song form Spotify? Is it worth it to use a turntable with the SONOS Roam? Thanks for helping me!

Hello. If I have turntable and a mixer wouldn’t I be able to connect my mixer to a Bluetooth transmitter and then connect via the new roam and then share to other Sonos speakers?

Hi is it possible to run a DJ setup - 2 decks -and a mixer through the Sonos system?

Couldn’t really afford these options, as they’re still pretty expensive from my viewpoint. Luckily our TV had composite connections (video, left, right), so I just connected our turntable (which has a built in preamp) to the left / right audio and setup a Turntable selection on the TV to use those. So the sound routes through the TV and into our Sonos Beam which I can then duplicate on other Sonos speakers throughout the house. Of course, the TV has to be on for this to work but it’s a very affordable workaround.

Hmmm, earlier devices not supported on the app (aka deliberate obsolescence to force repurchases). How long do these relatively expensive speakers last before becoming scrap or giant paperweights? Also, does the Port have eg. a USB input to play from eg. Foobar2000 or android-based USB Audio Player Pro?

Hi.. I am interested in a Sonos Amp to be able to link my existing Hifi set up with my Sonos system in different rooms. My problemis that I have both a turntable and CD player connected to my existing HiFi amp. The Sonos Amp seems only to provide for one line input.

I have a very annoying problem whereby with my two Sonos fives set up with stereo paired, and my turntable to preamp and line in, the two speakers only work simultaneously when the 16th inch Jack is half way in to the line in port on the Sonos five. I’ve tried multiple cables and factory reset and to no avail. Also autoplay does not work. This occurs when plugged in to either speaker. Any suggestions??

I can’t get volume from my turntable through the Sonos speakers (not even in the independent turntable speakers) but if I play Spotify can get sound through all the Sonos speakers and the turntable speakers. Anyone know why?

This was great thank you! I have a question. It seems fairly logical that the Sonos Move (Bluetooth) would be a good buy as it connects to the rest of the system and is the same price as the port. How much quality of sound is lost and do you think it's worth paying another 200 for the Sonos 5 instead?

Hi Aaron, thanks for your comment. If the intention is to simply listen to the turntable through the Arc system, you would only need the Sonos Port for £399.

You do not need the Amp, since Sonos Five is an active speaker with amp already built-in. You only need to purchase a pre-amp and connect it to the turntable, then use RCA Y-cable to connect the pre-amp and Sonos Five via Output (pre-amp) and analog source (Sonos Five).

Yes that is correct unfortunately. You would need to use 2 Fives for either surrounds or a line-in but not both at the same time. We tend to find the Sonos Ones or One SLs are perfectly adequate for surrounds as you don't necessarily need to have large speakers as surrounds. Hope this helps!

Why do you have a cord plugged in to the 12V trigger connection on the Port when you are talking about connecting a turntable to the line inputs, which are RCA connections on the port? Also, the Roam is not visible in the Sonos App when in Bluetooth mode, just like the Move. I stopped watching after those two mistakes.

Hi Adam, thank you for the comment. I can confirm once connected via a Bluetooth device the Sonos Roam os visible in the Sonos app and you can group to other speakers. This is 100% correct and a feature we use all the time. Also we use the Sonos port 12v trigger to trigger a power Amp in our showroom so that’s why it would have been connected. But should have been disconnected for filming.

!!!!!

You buy vinyl because of the great dynamic range and warmth only analog can provide, but when you go to any Bluetooth speakers you convert and compress back to digital thereby defeating the entire reason to go vinyl to begin with - Bluetooth turntables make absolutely zero sense.
