Connect/gen2 would fit the bill, but it is of course getting a bit long in the tooth.

If all you wanted was a Line-In, one possibility is an Era100 plus a Line-In/USB adapter. That way you get an additional speaker as well as the Line-In option.

To drive your conventional speakers with the existing amp you’d need a Port or Connect/gen2. Alternatively an Amp could replace the old amplifier.

Lastly, the TT will require a phono preamp to connect to Sonos, either built into the TT or separate.

Is the vinyl amp gear non-Sonos?

hi thanks

yes- all non sonos... the hifi runs into a nad amp and kef speakers..

I made a couple of edits. See above.

thats great,,, thank you very much

Yes, that’s assuming you’re referring to the Turntable being connected to a 3rd-party Amp and not the Sonos Amp? A Connect (gen 2) should be fine. The Turntable/Amp’s analog ‘line-out’ (if available) just needs to goto the Connect RCA line-in and you could also connect the Connects line-out (or optical out) to a corresponding Amp input too to play your Sonos Audio on your TT/Amp Speakers.

Anyhow see this helpful Sonos blog article for further information…

Which NAD is it? 

the nad is a 3120

so maybe will be nice to keep in the system

i m veering towards a s2 connect i think

this is all making sense,,thanks all

Treat the Connect as if it were a tape deck. Wire its outputs to the NAD’s Play inputs, and wire the Rec outputs to the Connect’s Line-in.

As well as being able to play from Sonos into the amp you could then utilise the NAD’s phono preamp for the TT and send its line-level signal back into the Sonos system. (That would save you having to buy a standalone phono preamp, assuming the TT doesn’t already have one.)

Note that signals sent through the Sonos system will be delayed by a minimum of 75ms, so if you wanted to listen to the TT on the Kefs and the Sonos speakers at the same time there would be an offset. A solution would be a ‘tape loop monitor’ facility, to play the TT’s signal via the Connect rather than directly. (Or route the TT signal through the Connect if it’s already been pre-amped.)

I can’t make out whether the 3120 has such an option (and my memory of my old 3020 has long since faded), but if it doesn’t you may be able to play tricks with removing the pre-power jumpers and splicing in the Connect. There could however be ‘interesting’ volume control challenges.

Nice Amp,  had a 3020 for many years.

As said above this will work. Attach the ‘tape rec’ to the Connect analog in and the analogue out to one of the spare inputs. It shouldn't matter which one. If I remember correctly the 3120 does not have any form of ‘tape monitoring’ so whilst you would be able to play vinyl and listen on both sonos and Kef speakers at the same time the sonos speakers would have at least a 75ms delay compared to the Kef speakers.

this is all great advice… thanks

just bought a connect s2…..
