Hey team, 

Look for some guidance on the right cable setup here. 

Existing setup = Rega turntable into Klipsch RP51 powered speakers. 

Acquired a PORT and 2 x Sonos One’s. 
 

Having trouble getting both vinyl playing through the Klipsch via the Port and also streaming audio from the Sonos app.
Unsure on the right cable setup to go from  Port into the powered speakers and wondering if anyone has had a similar setup and solution?

 

Have tried the following:

-Digital Coaxial out into the RCA plugs

-Digital Coaxial out into Aux

-RCA out into RCA

Seem to just get a fuzzy sound coming through or no sound at all. Any pointers or am i completely missing something super simple? :) 

Pic of Port & Klipsch for reference below

Any tips appreciated! 

Thank you

Turntable preamp out to port analog in. Port analog or digital out to speaker in, using appropriate cables.

The turntable must have used a preamp, perhaps built in, to feed the speaker analog in sockets.

Simply looking at the cable ends, I don’t see where PORT output goes or why there is a digital input to the R-51PM.

PORT input should be from the turntable preamplifier’s output and PORT’s output should go to the R-51PM input.
