Hello,
Please do excuse my naivety but I’m not very technically minded and still not clear after searching for related topics. I’m looking for some friendly advice on the purchase of a Pro-Ject Debut Carbon Turntable. I have a number of Sonos:One speakers that are grouped and I need an appropriate line-in to play through those speakers. However, I’m struggling to decide what is best, Sonos:Five, Port or Amp. My preference would be a Sonos:Five but can someone please confirm that I can use that as a line-in for the turntable, while still being able to Group to the other speakers and play through all of them, including the Sonos:Five? Any assistance gratefully received. Thanks.
Turntable line-in

HI
Welcome to the Sonos community and thanks for reaching out to us. I understand that you are looking for answers on how to integrate a turntable with your Sonos system. Let me help you out with that.
The Sonos Port, Sonos Amp, and the Sonos Five both have a line-in port feature that would allow you to integrate your turntable into your Sonos system. However, the Sonos Port and Sonos Amp use an RCA connection while the Sonos Five uses a 3.5mm headphone jack as a line-in connection (same as your headset or earphone jack/connector).
The most ideal product you would need to connect the turntable to Sonos would be the Sonos Five based on your preferred options. as the turntable uses an RCA connection that would need an RCA to 3.5MM headphone jack converter and then using the group and ungroup feature on the Sonos app, your son can group the Sonos Five with the Sonos device through the Sonos App to have the audio come out of both Sonos devices.
Let me share with you a topic here in the community that discussed more details about integrating a turntable to Sonos.
I hope this helps.
Please let us know if you still have further questions or concerns. I’ll be more than happy to help you out.
Thanks,
To add to the above; Even if the TT is wired to the line in on the 5, you can choose for it to not play while the other units it is streaming wirelessly to, are playing.
