Sonos Move not pairing with Bluetooth turntable (Audio Technica)

The Move is directly next to the turntable, and the bluetooth indicator lights on both devices are flashing, but they are not pairing. I’ve tried numerous times with no success.

Anyone else having this issue?

I’m told by Audio Technica that my bluetooth turntable uses SBC Bluetooth audio codec and A2DP profile. How do I find out if that is compatible with the Sonos Move?

Hi SummerBreeze, did you ever figure out if the Audio Technica Bluetooth turntable is compatible with the move? Was going to post the same question when I came across your thread! Thanks

I am having the same problem as SummerBreeze. My Audio Technica record player works great with an older speaker I have and hoping to connect it to my new Move.

Hi, ars014--

I have not received a solution as of yet. Would love to have one!

Seems like the Connect or new Port is the solve for this, but I’m wondering if anyone has tried connecting their turntable to a bluetooth receiver and then having that receiver connect to the Move? I had a pair of Insignia bookshelf speakers that paired fine to the turntable, no receiver required, and I assumed Move could do the same thing. Now I’m wondering if I can get a simple receiver to pair, or if I need to buy a Port.

Only finding this thread after getting my Audio Technical and watching those twinkly red and blue lights and my Move’s pulsing blue let yet never get to the point where I actually hear sound (or see the devices connect).

what did other folks do? Return the record player? Spend 400 on the port? Or figure out some way to get the 2 devices to pair?

Any results from anyone will help me at least feel better. And determine my next steps.

Thanks!

HI everyone. I’m just finding this thread as I was trying to connect my AT-lp60xbt to my sonos move. I was worried I wouldn’t figure it out but I’ve just gotten it to work. One thing I was missing each time was not putting the move into pairing mode (hold the bluetooth button until the top of the move is blinking blue).

It did seem like it was an odd combo of which one to put into pairing mode first I think in the end it was the record player but I’d suggest trying both). happy to help however I can if people are still having trouble.

Thanks for replying. I ended up buying a Port. Felt bad rewarding Sonos for not providing such a basic service as connecting 2 bluetooth devices simply but...I’m pretty psyched I now can play my records on both my Sonos devices in different rooms. Yes, I fell down the slippery slope but now I’m IN. And my vinyl does sound great.

I have a port upstairs, but I just bought this $99 dollar bluetooth from target (heyday) and it works with the sonos move. It works great, sounds great.. I’m very pleased with this solution. so now i have one turntable upstairs (Audio Technica AT LP120) which works great thorughout the house wifi with both the beam and move 1 and 2, and then the Target Heyday bluetooth one that works with the sonos move in bluetooth mode.. so stoked!
