Your room two is not a valid setup in Sonos, as there is no center channel option.  The Play 5 would have to be grouped, rather than bonded with the amp and surrounds.  I would think it would actually interfere with the audio quality, particularly with TV content.  Is Room 2 connected to a TV?

That could help.

That could help.

I don’t think this a good idea.  I doubt the amp is the weak spot here.  Either the inclusion of the play:5 with the amp, the 3rd party speakers, or the turntable is the issue.

A pair of 5s would be a great solution if you don’t need TV audio. You won’t need the amp at all, since the turntable can connect directly to the 5s.  If you do want TV audio, then keep the amp, use the play:5 in a different room, and upgrade your 3rd party speakers.

Thanks Danny for the quick reply. Follow up question - so solution #2 is option for me and keep the amp. Is the Klipsch R41M - 50 Watt good enough to improve my listening experience?

Odd question, but does the turntable have a built in preamp, or are you using an external one?

It is with built in pre-amp. Thanks.

Not using any external amp…

Cheers.

As a technology, vinyl is inferior to digital. Throw in varying qualities of vinyl set ups and their propensity to degrade over time, you are not comparing apples to apples. Enjoy vinyl for many reasons but accept the lower quality as a price to be paid for that.

Thanks bro.

Might be worth checking the turntable stylus, cartridge, tone arm, suspension set up first if you haven’t already done so to make sure everything is OK. If you are not extracting a quality signal from the vinyl, then no amount of amp or speaker changes will solve the root cause of the poor sound.

Or if there is groove damage caused even by just repeated playing even with a set up that is perfect. While an imperfect set up will damage the groove faster.

The thing is that vinyl needs a lot of tender loving care to perform to its full potential all the time - which full potential is eclipsed on the tech front by digital. Which is why digital was invented, as the next step. 
Of course, extending that loving care is part of the attraction of vinyl, but this is something to be aware of.

And if there are any problems in the vinyl sound via Sonos compared to digital via the same Sonos set up, there is nothing to be done on the Sonos side to improve things because the problems are all on the vinyl side. Definitely not with the Sonos Amp as claimed by OP.

you need to post full details of your turntable andcartridge as they are unknowns.

Hi Belly, Im using the AudioTechica LPW40WN with AT-VMN95E stylus. Thank you all for the support.  Makes me feel hopeful that i can still improve my listening experience - that is why we have these sonos components to try. 

Ok…

I would connect the TT directly to the Play 5 and not group the Play 5 with anything and have a listen. You may need to “find” a suitable lead. Alternatively without a lead to hand leave it connected to the Sonos Amp but play back on the 5 only without the Jamo’s or Play 1’s (not grouped)

Either way make sure the Sonos 5 or Amp’s line in level is set at 9 or 10 AND the switch in the back of the TT needs to be set to LINE

see how it sounds and let us know

Follow up question - I only have a single play 5 though to connect to the TT, will it sound good? not paired as stereo?

Please elaborate further: “You may need to “find” a suitable lead. Alternatively without a lead to hand leave it connected to the Sonos Amp but play back on the 5 only without the Jamo’s or Play 1’s (not grouped)”

What do you mean: “leave it”? the single play 5? So, I will pair the play 5 with the amp without the Jamo and play 1 speakers?

Thanks for your time.

Stereo is better with two 5’s but you only have one to test.

just connect the TT to the Play 5, don’t have the music playing from anything else. 

But isnt it a downgrade? Thanks!

… test

I’ve done it before not as clear and engaging

With the setting I posted?

Yup that prompted me to add the 3rd party speakers with the amp.  As i am not happy with just the TT and one single play 5. Now, im planning to get just basic receiver (not the surround as i can hook up my 2 play 1’s in the rear to serve the purpose), then get a port.  This is my only hope now to improve my listening experience. :-(

As touched on by Kumar earlier in this thread...the TT is the weakest part of your system followed by the Jamo speakers. The cartridge is bottom line and whilst the turntable looks impressive on paper a cheaper TT from Rega will beat it.

Before spending any money, find a hifi dealer who sells the Play 5 and turntables, taking your records along for a listen. You can’t connect the Play 1’s to a receiver.

Records are Stereo, recorded and mixed in Stereo (or mono if old) so don’t try making them into  pseudo surround sound.

For free.. The thing you could try is Truplay on the five if not already done so and physically move the sub so you have just the five, sub and TT playing.

Good luck and bye

Thanks again for all your support and time. I think id better add another pair of Play 5 to make it a stereo and move the sub closer.

So as to not get confused over correlating cause and effect, make only one change at a time to assess the outcome, thereby allowing you to locate the cause correctly.

Noted. Thank you!
