Sonos Amp to mini jack

Apologies if this is a basic question. Is it possible to output from sonos amp’s banana to mini jack? Are there adapters for this and how to search for them (cables plus adapters)?

 

Thanks in advance

Anything is possible. Recommended? No.

It would be exactly like connecting an amplifiers speaker jacks to a mini jack. You’d spend all your time messing with the volume out, and hoping you don’t blow out the device you’re connecting it to. 

The Sonos Port has line out jacks (RCA) on it, designed to provide a line level output, which most devices would be designed to receive.

Thank you for reply.

 

Are you saying that the phono ports labelled IN are also OUT?

Other than those phono IN and SUB, two CAT5 , HDMI and the banana I cant any other way :-\

No, I’m saying the Sonos Amp has no line level output. The Sonos Port, a completely different device, does.
