MF M5si for turnable for passive speakers but want to use my sonos amp for streaming to passive

Question

Hi,

I have arc, port, 2 one sl surrounds, gen 3 sw. I also have the amp.

Now have have a turntable with the musical fidelity m5si powering mh turnable sending to my Denton 85’s.

Is is possible to connect the amp to the m5si so I can use the amp as a streamer for my iTunes? If so how? This is the first priority without having to get a streamer. e.g. mx stream from musical fidelity. The m5si has USB port. Will sonons HDMI to m5si USB port work? Of do I need to add a dac then Sonos amp to dac to m5si?

My turnable and arc are in the same room. I can stream over the arc setup but I prefer the dentons.

I keep arc home theater for spatial audio in TV.

Please let me know.

The Amp has no digital output. Norfor that matter does it have line-level analog outs.You’d need a Port, connected to the M5si via RCA.The Port’s coax digital out cannot connect to the M5si’s USB input.
