I want to play my cd collection again. Will a Marantz cd6007 connect to my two play 5 speakers to give me stereo output. My play 5 speakers were purchased 5 years between but I believe they are generation 1 speakers.
Wire the CD player to the Line-In on either speaker of the stereo pair. It’ll play stereo on both.
Brilliant, thanks Ratty! So no need for an amp between the cd player and the speakers? Any advice on type of connection cables??

Most likely the cable will be RCA to 3.5 mm.

No need for an amp. More than likely the CD player has RCA outs. So you would need an RCA to 3.5 mm stereo miniplug cable.
RCA to 3.5 mm stereo cable.
I thought I’d like to play my CDs too, folks here showed me how to rip them to my computer and then share them to Sonos using the Music Library. No more changing CDs and I can chain a lot of them together in the queue or a playlist instead. CD storage cabinet hasn’t been open in years.
As long as you rip to a lossless format, FLAC is my choice, there is no difference in the sound.
Thank you for the heads up and advice. I can now proceed with purchasing a cd player and dusting off my cd collection.

Hi
Whelther or not
All said what is your specific connection question/issue and what type of Sonos gear is involved? More information will help as there is another option if you don’t own a Sonos speaker with line-in.
