QuestionCan I connect the Sonos port to the RCA output of my bluetooth reciever/CD player to stream to multiple Sonos speakers?
Asked 3 years ago by JMP2.
- Answer Sonos port has a line-in input. You can use that receiver as a source, to stream to multiple speakers. Make sure your receiver has a line-out output, the Sonos port is not made for speaker level input.

QuestionWhen bluetoothing from my Iphone into the port will the port help increase the volume? I'm currently Bluetooth from phone into the Sonance 125 amp out to a 8 speaker Sonance garden series system and don't feel I'm getting good volume or bass?
Asked 3 years ago by Darkclpoud.
- Answer Thanks for your question. The Sonos Port does not use Bluetooth. It will connect to your home's Wifi and stream content using Wifi from the internet or from your device. As for volume, The Port would have its own volume control, but your Sonance 125 amp does have individual control on the rear of the unit. You may want to check to see if that control is set to the proper level.

QuestionI have two seperate receivers that control music in two rooms. If I get two ports can they both be accessed by the same smartphone sonos app and play the same music at the same time? Can they be accessed by two different people at the same time?
Asked 4 years ago by Jlowe.
- Answer To answer your questions: 1) Yes. You will assign separate room/names to each port at set up; however, in the app you choose one room and the option to group other rooms/devices appears. You simply choose the other port , room, speaker you want to play the same music. 2). Yes. If you are playing music on one port someone else with the app linked to your system can play music on another port, speaker, etc..

QuestionIf streaming Apple Music from my phone (assuming via AirPlay2) to the Port, is the streaming done on the Port (like a Chromecast) or on my phone? Asking because of spotty wifi service on edges of my property.
Asked 4 years ago by Kevin.
- Answer The stream would be coming from your phone, and going to the Port. So a spotty wifi connection could cause issues.

QuestionHello, I want to buy a turntable to use with my Sonos speakers around my house. I will need to buy the turntable and buy a Port or the Amp? And a preamp or no preamp turntable? I know the Amp works w/ wiredspeakers. Thanks.
Asked 4 years ago by Turntable.
- Answer Yeah depends on what you want. Port is nice just as a "line in" for the turntable to send it to other speakers around the home. If you're wanting to listen in that room where the turntable is Amp is nice with a pair of speakers. You can also line into a Sonos Five with a 3.5mm jack. Most turntable do require a preamp. Especially older ones. Some of the newer ones have them built in. It's really a case by base scenario.

QuestionI have a wired system with a receiver that has two zones; one in our great room and one outside with two speakers on our deck. If I just wanted to stream music through the outside speakers would the Port be the component I need?
Asked 4 years ago by TimV.
- Answer I believe what you want and are attempting to do is correct - Yes - you'll want and need the SONOS Port Streaming Media Player - as long as the AMP / Receiver you run the SONOS PORT through gives you the ability to choose the ZONES ( Zone 1 / Zone 2 / Zone 1 + 2 ) you actually want accepting the music stream.

QuestionI'm running wire to two outdoor sonance speakers to the Amp. What kind of sub will connect to the Amp or can I get any that will connect to my existing sonos.
Asked 5 years ago by Seano.
- Answer The Sonos amp does not have an LFE output, dedicated for active (separately powered) subs. But that’s okay because most any ‘passive’ sub will have speaker-level Ins/outs, so that’s what you’ll use. Wire the sub in between your Sonos Amp and your speakers.

QuestionWill this work to transmit from my Crosley - Ridgemont Bluetooth Stereo Audio System to my sonos speakers and if so would it connect from the RCA line out from the Crosley to the Port?
Asked 5 years ago by Rexsolis.
- Answer Hi, and thank you for reaching out with a question. The Port would could do both input and output but not at the same time. You could run from this via RCA to the analog in on the Port and play music to other Sonos speakers by grouping them together. You could plug Port into it via Port's analog or digital out and play your music via Sonos to your Crosley system. (This would be ideal for music quality as you'd be steaming via wifi instead of bluetooth)
