A:AnswerHi and thank you for your question. Yes, you can stream music wirelessly to all of your Sonos products without audible delay. When it comes to the Sonos Port, you may need multple depending on the multi zone amp that you have. If you want to have different songs in different rooms then you would definitely need a Sonos Port of each zone. However, if you don't mind the same song playing all of the time, then in theory you could have one Port connected to the multi zone amp and then group it with your other Sonos speakers/products for in sync wireless audio. It's difficult to give specific advice on what you need based on not seeing/knowing what you have, but the short answer to your question is yes.
A:AnswerYou should be able to plug your CD jukebox output into the input of the Connect. And when you use your outdoor speakers select the “Line IN” for the source. One thing to know is that Sonos have moved to a new software system and the Connect is no longer being supported. I replaced my Connect with a new “Port” which is the newer technology. Hope this helps.
A:AnswerIt would be cheaper to buy a a multi channel amplifier to power the speakers, assuming you can have all of the wiring meet at one point, then add the port to the amplifier if you want the Sonos platform.
A:AnswerIf you currently have wired, outdoor speakers the Sonos Amp would be a great way to power them and allow you to stream music with the Sonos app over WiFi. You could use a port if there is already an amplifier connected to the speakers but a Sonos Amp is the cleanest way to stream music to wired speakers.
A:AnswerYou connect through the app, not directly to the device. You will be able to listen to the music through both the stereo speakers and Sonos one at the same time.
A:AnswerYes, the Sonos Port is backward compatible with the Sonos S1 app. While the Port was designed to work with the Sonos S2 system, it can still be controlled using the S1 app for users who are using legacy Sonos products or prefer to stay on the S1 platform.
However, please note that while it's compatible, you might not have access to some of the newer features available through the Sonos S2 app. If you’re planning to add newer products or expand your system, upgrading to the S2 app may offer additional benefits.
