Bluetooth turntable integrate with Sonos speaker network

Question

I have a Audiotechnica AT-LP3XBT turntable that is bluetooth enabled (but not wifi enabled). I’d like to be able to bluetooth connect the turntable to one of my sonos speakers and then have that speaker cast (via wifi) to the rest of my Sonos speaker network, which includes a Sonos Move (Gen 1) , a Sonos Sub and several Sonos One SLs.

I understand that none of my current speakers are capable of doing this but I’m wondering if any others can - to inform my next purchase. Separately, I’m considering buying a soundbar (e.g. Arc Ultra or Beam) for my home entertainment set up - so if one of these can work - that’s ideal.

Sorry if this is a repost of sorts… I’ve read other posts and generally saw mixed information, which left me uncertain,.

Hi ​@bigred777Welcome to the Sonos Community!I agree with​@Pools-3015- a wired connection would sound best.In answer to your direct question, however, Arc Ultra does support Bluetooth, and can be instructed to share it’s Bluetooth feed with other speakers (but not automatically).Arc Ultra cannot, however, use the Line-In adaptor as the Era 100 can. Please also note that no speaker configured as a rear surround can use the Line-In adaptor either.I hope this helps.

The least expensive option would be an Era 100 that is Bluetooth capable, but the best sounding connection would be to use get the Sonos line in adapter with the 100 and use the RCA withe the turntable’s preamp switched on.

We are already making a compromise using Sonos to listen to vinyl, adding Bluetooth to the mix just seems wrong to me.
