Has the new Sonos Port fixed the delay issue for DJing?

Question

Hi All, I am a DJ wanting to connect my turntable and mixer to the Sonos speakers. I know through Sonos Connect there is a delay between the music played through the headphones and the actual music played out on the speakers.
I have just noticed Connect has been replaced with Port so I am wondering if maybe this delay issue has been fixed with Port.
Thank you

There is no difference for the Port. The lag is deliberate to provide multiroom sync. Sonos is not designed for DJing and so I don't think Sonos regard this as an issue.

Sorry I can't bring you any better news.

You should forget about using Sonos for any live performance. The lag is a not something to be “fixed” it is an integral part of the design needed for multi-room sync. Get a PA system designed for live performances.
