Hello, I have been using three Sonos speakers for years and they still work perfectly, BUT they are not compatible with Airplay. If I buy one newer Sonos speaker that is Airplay compatible, will that effectively make the whole system Airplay compatible?
Answer
Airplay vs. older non compatible Sonos speakers

Yes, in so far that you'd Airplay to the new speaker and group that with the old speakers. see https://support.sonos.com/article/group-and-ungroup-rooms
I can't see what speakers you won but if they are S1 only, you need to buy an S1 compatible speaker. See https://support.sonos.com/article/sonos-s2-compatibility

+20It’s also fairly simple to make all Sonos speakers directly compatible with AirPlay, if you have a little technical know-how:

If you can get your hands on a Raspberry Pi, take a look at:
