Sonos Port as output device

Current setup:

turntable --> pre-amp --> era 100.

i want to have the turntable audio also play out of my Adam A5X active studio monitors.

Can i get a sonos port, and connect the outputs to the Adam A5x(no inputs connected to port) and then group the Era 100 turntable audio to the port, so that the audio from the turntable plays out of both the era 100 and the adam a5x’s via the port?

if so, will there be a delay of any kind?

If this ‘big knob’ Mackie is the passive studio monitor that’s on Amazon here, you could connect the headphones transmitter directly to either of the analog out ports on it.

If you are currently using the RCA outputs a simple Y cable is an adequate splitter to allow your Bluetooth transmitter to also connect. Otherwise just use the RCA outputs.

the big knob is the passive. studio monitor, yes, that you linked above.

what im confused about is, the port is not amplified….it sends audio to my adam a5x studio monitors which are actgive speakers containing their own amp.

therefore the port conneccted to the mackie big knob is unamplified, so is it a wireless headphone amp that i need? just unsure what i need to google for?

Not sure there is such a thing as a "wireless headphone amp" how would it send power to the headphones without a connecting cable?

Go to Amazon, type in "Bluetooth Transmitter" and pick one with RCA inputs and good ratings.
