Hi everyone, I've got a few questions about connecting my Riga RP1 Turntable to my Sonos network. Ultimately, I want the best and most authentic sound quality from my turntable and want to know whether there is any difference in sound quality between the following:



Option 1 (my current set-up) - Riga RP1 connected to a phono preamp then use the line out to my play:5

Option 2 - Riga RP1 connected to a Connect:Amp then out to a pair of speakers

Option 3 - Riga RP1 connected to a Phono Amp then out to a pair of speakers (then perhaps incorporate a Connect so that I can access Sonos though this system)



Presumably, playing vinyl through my current set-up is using a digitally converted signal which I guess a true vinyl aficionado would say is a no-go.

Does the Connect:Amp also convert the analogue audio output to a digital output before pushing it out of the speakers?

Does the Connect:Amp support a Phono input or will I still need to use my preamp?

Are there any vinyl enthusiasts out there who can enlighten me?

Apologies if this has already been answered in another thread.

I look forward to hearing your views

Thanks in advance
