Question

Connect + turntable

I've recently acquired an Audio Technica AT-LP120 turntable and am looking into connecting it to my Sonos system. I've scoured the forums and am pretty sure about the answer, but thought I'd double check with you guys.

The turntable has a built-in preamp, so am I right in assuming that I can wire it to a Connect and stream it to my Sonos speakers without the need for a separate amplifier? There won't be any speakers wired directly to the turntable (I've already got a Connect:Amp wired to some Cambridge Audio floorstanders in the living room, but the boss won't allow a turntable in there!).

Thanks in advance.

    Yes, the Connect will do what you need it to, including to the Connect Amp.

      You'll love it! It's fantastic to be able to play vinyl, streamed to every room in the house. I've even got it in the bathroom now.

      I REALLY regret selling my vinyl back in the 90s when I converted to CD. My daughter doesn't know what a CD is, so an LP will blow her away!

      Cool.

      I've become a bit of a Sonos nerd. Last part of set up has been to get a Connect Amp so that I can attach speakers to it which are placed in the bathroom.

      Music now being streamed to every room in the house!

      The turntable and Connect are now wired up, and they sound fantastic together.
