Was going to buy a turntable and a preamp. Would people recommend connecting to a Port or a Sonos 5? The Port and 5 are a similar price but didn’t know if audio would be better through either connection because of the 3.5mm jack versus RCA.  I am placing the turntable in my living room where I already have an Arc, 2 play 3’s and a sub. 

The line in on both devices is the exact same, except for the form factor. There would be no difference in sound, no matter which you chose.


If you can place and use a 5 without also compromising on room aesthetics, that would be a better choice for giving you one more speaker unit.
