I currently have a Sonor Arc.

I have my turntable connected to a pair of analog Edifier speaker. 

I am seeking to replace the edifiers with a pair of Sonor Era 100.

I wold like to be able to use the Arc connected the the pair of Era 100 for Home Theater application. 

And to use the Era 100 in pair a reproduce the Turntable using the line.

 

The questions:

  1. Every example I find of turntable connected to a Era 100 or 300 are for a single speaker. so It is not clear to me if the line in will be played in stereo or not in the pair of Era 100.
  2. Will the line in be shared with the Arc as well?

Looking forward to burn more money in Sonos as soon as I understand how it works!

Thanks!

 

 

If the Era speakers are set up as a stereo pair and you connect the turntable to the line-in on one of the speakers, the turntable audio will play out of both speakers in stereo.

FYI… when used as a surround speaker in a Sonos home theater setup, the line-in feature on the Era 100 is disabled.


OK, so I cannot have a pair of Era 100 for hometheater application bundled with my ARC and switch inputs to use the line in from time to time.  Is one or the other. 

Thanks!


The correct Sonos term form “bundling” speakers as a surround “room” is “bonding”, but yes.
