Sonos Connect + Marantz (NR 1603) Receiver?

Hi folks

We recently bought a house and the prior owners left this gear behind. The house is setup with built-in speakers in loads of rooms (I'm guessing over 6), including outside.

I'm not an audiophile and nor do I have much knowledge at all about how to setup a house-wide audio system. All we think we really want to be able to do is play Spotify in different rooms/zones..! The Marantz receiver is an NR1603 (https://www.crutchfield.com/S-wgrkdYaKG4I/p_642NR1603/Marantz-NR1603.html) and the Sonos is, I guess, a Connect.

Below are the pictures of the audio cabinet and the wiring at the audio cabinet (there is a separate networking cabinet for the house): https://imgur.com/a/Opy6SfE

I think some of the hardware is from 2002 (when the house was renovated and rewired), although the Marantz is from 2012 I think.

Any advice about how to get the Sonos Connect hooked up to the Marantz properly (what wires go where?) and how to get that music then flowing to the other rooms would be hugely appreciated!

Thanks in advance,
P.
