I have a Playbar, sub and 2 rear surround speakers Used with my TV -  all great and love it. Want to now connect my turntable so it can use the same speakers. I have a Sony deck with a pre-amp and have just bought a connect, assuming that would be what I need. I’m useless with tech and thought the connect would send the signal from the deck to my existing speakers. Have I got that wrong and if not how do I connect the connect to the existing speakers? Many thanks.

I assume you have added the Connect as a separate room and your turntable is connected to the line-in?

If so, then in the Connect's line in settings set the Autoplay Room to be whatever room name you use for the Playbar. 

See how that goes.

You are a genius and I am an idiot - thanks so much. All sorted now!

Neither of those things is true but I am glad it's working
