Question

using an a-b switch with Connect:Amp

I use my Connect:Amp for my turntable and it works great. I also have a CD player and a large collection of CD’s that I would still like to play. My question is: does anyone have experience using an a-b switch with a Connect:Amp so you can easily switch between two devices? If so, does it work well or are there any problems you have experienced? Thanks.

    A simple push-button source selector switch will work fine.

    Don’t be tempted to use a Y cable to connect both sources simultaneously. It could sound unpleasant.

    Where would I get such a switch? If not connected with a Y cable, how are they connected? Thanks for your help, it is appreciated.

    Try https://www.amazon.ca/s?k=rca+switch

    You use standard cables. Wire the turntable to the switch. Wire the CD player to the switch. Wire the switch to your Sonos unit.
