Hi Everyone,
I don't manage to make working my Technics SLBD-20 vinyl records Turntable with My Connect Amp. I don't have any sound. I have no problem with my CD reader which works perfectly on Sonos thru the Connect Amp.
Do you know how I can connect my Turntable to my Sonos system ?
Thanks a lot,
Olivier

Do you have the required phono pre-amp between the turntable and the Connect? Take a look at: https://en.community.sonos.com/music-services-and-sources-228994/using-a-turntable-with-sonos-6769426

Thanks for your quick feedback !
Effectively this is the issue. Is it important to invest in a qualitative phono pre-amp ?
Thanks a lot,

No, there are many good enough ones that are in the USD 100 range. Here is an example that will work well if your cartridge is of the moving magnet type: https://www.amazon.com/Pro-Ject-Phono-Box-Preamplifier-Black/dp/B000YEK1AQ/ref=sr_1_9?ie=UTF8&qid=1516547265&sr=8-9&keywords=phono+preamp

Also, the thread referred earlier above has the names of some.

I highly recommend this one:

I have one and it sounds great and has all the adjust-ability you will need.
