Hello,

I have connected a vinyl turntable to my two Era 300 speakers via cable and I am looking for a way to adjust the volume while listening. I saw on a forum that IKEA has a solution, but it requires buying a hub, and I already have two: my Apple TV and a TAPO hub for my connected devices. I’m surprised I haven’t found a simple solution to this problem.

I should mention that I am in France, so I am looking for a solution that I can either buy in France or have delivered.

 

Thanks in advance for your replies!

Just use the Sonos app on your Phone, Tablet, Mac or PC.

But if you are looking for a way without using these things then there is the Flic Twist, but you will need a Flic Hub if you don’t have one already.

      Voice control options are also available.

        You could also buy a phono-preamp with a volume control and use it instead of the fixed volume internal phono-preamp.

        Still the App volume slider or speaker touch volume controls seem easier.

          If your turntable is connected through the Sonos line-in on the Era 300s, the easiest solution is honestly just using the Sonos app or voice control for volume adjustments. If you want physical control, the IKEA Symfonisk remote works well, but yes, it requires the IKEA Dirigera hub. Unfortunately, Sonos still doesn’t offer a simple standalone physical volume knob solution without going through a smart-home ecosystem.

          There is a simple physical volume solution, without going through a smart-home ecosystem.  Unless you are using the Amp or Port, there’s a volume control on the top of each Sonos unit.
