DJing with Sonos: a potential hack AKA solution

So I was interested in getting a connect/amp so I could link the master out of my DJ mixer to my Sonos setup in the living room which consists of a pair of Ones and a Beam. Browsing the community it appears that there is a delay on the Sonos playback which means the sound played back in headphones attached to mixer, whilst cueing and mixing, would be out of sync. For anyone who DJs, not what you want eh. So what we really need to get around this problem is for the headphone output of the mixer, to be delayed by the same amount as the Sonos setup. Now then. After a bit of googling I discovered this (below). Have a look and feedback comments. Essentially, using some phono and jack adapters from any hifi store or similar, I see no reason why you couldn’t insert this device in between the DJ mixer and the headphones. You could then adjust the delay (latency) and hey presto. It’s just an idea so why do you lot think?

Unless I missed something, this could be what everyone has been after.

    Lucky for you im an amazing artiste

    Yeah this is what I thought you meant originally so I have come full circle. 😃

    I have active monitors in my studio for which decks are attached too so I think this setup would be unnecessary. I was thinking about just bringing them into living room on the beam and Sonos Ones (pair) and avoid two sets of speakers. Thanks for your help and patience- I think I’ll just leave in the studio for now.

    Not sure what you do for living but you should defo be an artist. 😃
