There is an orange marking on the Sony input. I know the Sonos uses 1/8 RCA but don’t know what the other end uses.

I have two DVD/CD players and would like to hook one of them up to my 5. I’m confused about the connectorsi—1/8 RCE and digital. What should I buy?

The input on a Five is analog only. You will need an RCA to 3.5mm stereo miniplug cable. Connect the RCA’s to the L/R outputs on the CD player, and the miniplug to the Line-In on the Five.
The output from the CD/DVD player only has 1 port and an HDMI
If there’s just one RCA, with an orange centre, it’s digital. You’ll need a cheap digital-analog converter.

You mentioned orange. If that is an orange RCA, it is digital coax. You will need a digital coax to RCA analog converter (DAC). Connect the coax side of the converter to the CD/DVD player via an RCA video cable, and the analog RCA side to the Five via an RCA to 3.5mm stereo miniplug cable.
I’m pretty sure you’re right. I think this answered my question. I’ve ordered something and we’ll see.
