Hi folks. I am new to Sonos and want to expand my system around the house. I have just bought a new Sonos 5. I have a set of B&O  Beolab 18 speakers. I would like to connect these wirelessly to my new Sonos set up. 
 

Can the Sonos Connect work wirelessly? Or what would I need?

Can you provide a link to the Beolab 18 speaker system, please? Hard to answer your question without knowing if that system has an analog input on it.

Sonos Port.  Connect via RCA.

Thanks but I just actually realised they work together through Apple Air Play 2 from my phone! No hardware needed, no delay in sound and high quality sound on both 👌

[[ For future search-ers, note that Beolab 18’s do *not* (as of this writing) have AirPlay2 built in.  The original author writing the response above must also have had a Beosound Core in his overall setup.  (Or maybe a Beosound Essence Mk.2, or an old AirPort Express already hooked up to the BeoLab 18 RCA jacks.) ]]
