Connecting a Turntable to Sonos 5 via Denon AVR


I’m having difficulty connecting my turntable via my Denon AVR-2808-ci to Sonos 5. I have tried the avr’s  zone 2 (& 3)  pre outs and thought I made all appropriate setup steps as described in the “proved solution” but it’s not working.

Try using the (14 in the diagram) DVR or VCR audio outputs to go to your Sonos.

Using the pre-outs may be sending a very low volume signal to the Sonos. You could try tweaking around that.

Not that I’m an expert here, but what input is your turntable connected to on the Denon?

Stanley_4 - Thanks for the recommendation, this worked!  I still have significant noise and will switch cables and troubleshoot further.
