Sonos Beam - Optical Input

I'm about to order a sonos beam, and two Sonos Ones to use as rears.
I was also going to get a sonos connect so i could run my record player via my receiver into the connect.

But I've just read the Sonos Beam has an optical input. Could this be used instead if my record player had optical out? I suspect not but does anyone know for sure? Would be amazing if it could!

    Thanks Ratty, would you mind providing a link with an example of what you mean?

    Didn't we already discuss that here? The Beam's optical adapter is designed for use with a TV.

    I thought that you were suggesting an additional product (a line powered dongle) to assist with my problem. No worries if I have misunderstood you.

    Ah, okay. No, I was referring to the optical/HDMI dongle supplied with the Beam.
