Hello, my system is Beam Gen 2 with a pair of One SL's as a stereo pair with a mini sub. Also a standalone One. Recently added an Era 100.

I can connect my turntable ( which has a pre amp) via Bluetooth to the Era 100 and add in the One but cannot add in the remaining system. I can using the app but it doesn't group everything whenever I use the turntable.

I want to use the Beam and stereo One's for watching the TV and then automatically use all speakers when playing vinyl, is that possible?

Previously I was using a Connect box via line in to the turntable but it was a bit hit and miss although did auto play and use all the speakers but not every time.

You should be able to add rooms interactively, or using the “Everywhere” option. It will need to be selected though; there’s no option to automatically create a group for an input.

    Yes this true but I don't want to use the app when I want to play through all, also my wife doesn't have the app and won't use it. She plays vinyl when I'm not home so it needs to be automatic if possible

    You can use Sonos Voice Control rather than the app.

      Oh, and what is the prompt so that it plays through all. Would it be 'everywhere'?

      You may want to pay attention to the sound quality when using Bluetooth, you may find it to be lower than a wired connection. Adding the 3.5 mm audio input adapter to the Era is a good option in that case.

        Here is a good reference for the SVC commands.
