How many external devices (i.e. LP player and CD Player) can I connect to a Sonos Amp or Port? Can I connect both to one device and if so whioch one do I need?
The Port and Amp have a single Line in, if you’re not using a switch. As many as the switch allows, if you are.
1st
If you’re not planning to use wired 3rd party speakers then the Port is the better (less expensive) choice.
2nd
I assume by LP you mean you want to connect a turntable. The turntable requires a pre-amp built in or external.
3rd
Using the Port you have to designate a Sonos (speaker/room) as the “auto play” room. Otherwise, you have to select a speaker/room each time you use the Port.
4th
As
5th
The Port sends audio to the Sonos speaker of your choice over WiFi. If you want a more direct connection you might consider a stereo pair of Era 100’s and use a line-in port on either speaker connected with the Sonos proprietary line-in adapter from the switch.
6th
See a switch at the link below:
Decide on the type of connectors you want and search on Amazon or elsewhere for a switch. Like:
3.5mm switch
RCA switch
