Playing records

If there are wireless compatible turntables then id love to know about them..🆒

I have playbar and sub soon to have a pair of play 1's.

Apologies for answering my own posts but didnt put enough info in my original one...:$:$:$

Unfortunately, Sonos tends to keep future release plans close to their chest, so you won't likely get an answer that you like from an official source from Sonos.

But to be honest, with their stated emphasis on streaming sources, I'd be very surprised if they were to include a line in on any less expensive device. I could certainly be wrong on this, but we just won't know until they release such a device. And they tend to announce new devices only weeks before releasing them, probably as a move to get maximum press coverage just around release time.

Oops. One minor correction to your post. The analog line-in hardware is the PLAY:5 and the CONNECT (and CONNECT:AMP), not the PLAY:3. There's also the optical / digital line in on the PLAYBAR and PLAYBASE.

Hi.
Thanks for the reply..
I use the optical in on my playbar for my tv.
Does this mean there are optical ins for vinyl players?.

Im all confused.

Thanks bruce...i will continue to look at my vinyls for the forseable future..:D

No, I just didn't want to leave out any line-ins. The digital line in on the PLAYBAR and PLAYBASE are normally used for data from a TV set, but optical is a one way transmission, so there's no way for the device to know what is sending the signal. So it would be possible to connect a turntable through a pre-amp device that has an optical output to the PLAYBAR/PLAYBASE. It's just not as designed And probably a tad expensive. But possible :)

The analog inputs on the PLAY:5 and CONNECT are much more suited for this use case.

Didn't mean to confuse you. Sometimes too much data is too much 🙂

It is possible that your turntable has a built in pre-amp. Do you know? If you have a line level analog output from the turntable you could convert it to optical with a suitable converter (Flexson make one). You then have two optical cables (TV and turntable) so just need a digital optical switch to select the one you want

Hi john..

I dont have a tutntable yet. Its just an idea i am toying with as my collection is currently gathering dust.

Bruce...back to your earlier point about sonos being digit/streaming...have they not heard tjat vinyl is making a comeback.

As has been stated, if you want vinyl on Sonos you can have it! But it isn't what Sonos is fundamentally about.
