Playing Sonos though my Bose QC35 II Wireless H'phones

IMac with Big Sur OS; Bluetooth Activated & H’phones ‘connected’. Music source used for Sonos is iTunes Library & Playlists

Sonos Bridge; Play-1; Play-3

 

Simple question - can I use my H’phones to listen to my Music on Sonos (I can do this by listening directly to iTunes i.e through ‘Music’ option on iMac) & if so how do I set this up?

 

Thank you

 

Keith

This is not possible with your current arrangement. The Sonos app for the Mac is simply a remote control, not a media player.

To serve your headphones you’d need to get a Connect or Port and hook it up to a separate Bluetooth transmitter. An alternative would be a Play:5/gen1 if you could find one, since that had an analog headphone outlet.
