Turntable via receiver via port to wireless speakers?

I have researched and researched, but nothing matches my situation or I don’t understand enough. I just bought a Bluesound Node thinking it could do what I want, but it doesn’t apparently, so now I am wondering if the Sono Port will allow this.

I love my wired speakers, I have a Rega 3 turntable, I have a decent Marantz receiver with audio out. If I connect the audio out on my receiver to the Port, can I listen to my wired speakers AND also stream the vinyl to my soundbar/Move ...etc via wireless?

The Node can not do this and I am still not sure if it could if I had a bluesound wireless speaker, the answers are all over the place. Can the Port “see” my other sonos devices and stream to them wirelessly whatever is playing on my receiver?

Thank you!!

Best option here would be to get a standalone phono pre-amp, set up as rega → pre → port → marantz. This way you wouldn’t have the latency issue and you could use your port for both turntable and wireless audio through your amp in sync with your other Sonos speakers.

Thanks for all the insight. I have decided to send back the Bluesound Node and get the Port. I hate being held to the Sonos system as Bluesound seems to have superior sound and I am not super bowled over with Sonos in general, but looks like I have to stay here for now. I still like the way my 30+year old Tannoy M20 Gold speakers sound compared to the best Sonos speaker!

Good to know. I’ll add that to my Christmas list :) I do have an external phonostage, a pretty fancy once, that may work. But it’s from the UK and needs to have the voltage converted, making it an electricity sink.
