NV-18M and Sonos Port

Hi all, recently moved into a house with the NUVO Concerto system and looking to update the source systems (currently runs off a computer CPU with music folders...). I just want to know if I can plug in a Sonos Port into the basic RCA source inputs or if this particular amp will be to out of date. Ideally I can control music and volume from the Sonos app rather than the NUVO control panels on the wall in each room for the in-ceiling speakers. 

Hoping I don’t need to update the multi-zone amp.

Connecting a Sonos Port to the NUVO as one of the RCA source inputs should work just fine. Be sure to set the Line-Out Level for the Port in the Sonos app to either Fixed, Variable, or Pass-Through depending on how you would like to control the volume.

Thanks. And I assume one port would have to be the source for all zones but then if I have two Ports I could play separate music upstairs and downstairs for example?

If that’s how the NUVO works, yes, you would need a second Port to play different music in a different zone.
