I’m fairly green with technology, I have a very simple setup with Sonos, a Beam sound bar (HDMI to the tv) and a Sonos one, both can be connected together using the Sonos 2 app on my phone. I have decided to add a turntable and CD player to play through my Sonos system and was advised to get a Sonos Port, also advised to get a switch box so both the CD player and turntable could be connected at the same time with only one output to the Port. My issue is that the Port wouldn’t connect to the current Beam/One network and instead created its own network, now when I play a CD and connect everything together I hear no sound (both CD player and Turntable) Any ideas??

 

First, be sure the audio cables from the switch box are connected to audio IN on the Port. Start the CD player or turntable audio, then select the Beam under System and then tap Browse (music note icon) in the Sonos app and scroll down and select the Line-In option. Then group the Play:1 to the Beam.

You may also need to adjust the Source Level under the Line-In settings for the Port. You can also set the Line-In Autoplay room to the Beam or Play:1. Also be sure to set Audio Compression to Uncompressed for the best audio quality.

GuitarSuperstar, thank you!! Tried it and listened to my first CD today, going to try the same with the turntable. :grinning:
