I currently have in my Family Room, the following setup: Playbar, Sub, and 2 Play 1s (so surround sound). If I was to purchase a turntable and want to hook it up to my Sonos, like this one (https://victrola.com/collections/record-player/products/victrola-6-in-1-nostalgic-bluetooth-record-player-with-3-speed-turntable), I understand I would need to also purchase a preamp and then either a Connect, Connect Amp, or Play 5 (only equipment that has audio in jacks).
Here is my first question: If I have zero interest in using the built in speaker with the turntable and only want to use my existing Sonos speakers to play the music, my assumption is go with the Connect over the Connect Amp? (since I don't need an amplifier). I know the purpose of the Connect is mainly to provide audio to your existing speakers, but it seems to be the cheapest option with the "audio in" port. I don't need the Play 5, sinceI already have great speaker coverage in the room.
Here is my second question: Would this be the setup. RCA Audio out jacks on the turntable to Preamp RCA in jacks. Preamp RCA out jacks to RCA in jacks on Sonos Connect?
Third Question: This is for a separate project. I recieved my uncle's "1960 stereo". It has a turntable built in as well as AM/FM and shortwave radio. On the back on the equipment are two outputs for external speakers (see photo).
It has DIN 41529 Right and Left inputs. Besides the preamp what other "converters" would I need if I wanted to hook this up to my Sonos? It's probably going to be an expensive project, but wanted to see what was involved.
Thank you so much for your help!
