Using Gen 1 Connect with Gen 2 Play1 speakers

 

This has probably been asked many times before but I'm struggling to find an answer to my specific question.

 

I currently own 2 x Play2 speakers using S2 software (I assume this means I have Gen 2 speakers. I was intending on purchasing a Sonos Connect so that I can connect my turntable to my speakers.

 

If I purchase a used Connect Gen 1 will it work on my Gen 2 speakers?

 

Thanks

    If you use the Sonos S1 app, you will be able to use the Connect (Gen 1) with your Play:1s. But if you use the S2 app, only the Play:1s are compatible. You should try to find a used Connect (Gen 2) instead.

    Here is a full list of which Sonos products are compatible with the S2 app: https://support.sonos.com/s/article/4786?language=en_US

    Ah I see, that makes sense. I didn't realise there were two versions of the app.

     

    Thank you for your reply, I really appreciate it. I'll try and find a cheap Gen 2 Connect.

    Cheers
