If you have a mac that you keep your music on Sonos is worthless. It can't read your music library on a Mac.

I have Sonos and was actually just figuring out how to hook a turntable up.

The post about each having an analog input is not correct. Play 1s do not. Also, the post above me about not reading iTunes libraries is wrong as well. Sonos works great with my iMac and iTunes library on it.

If possibly, I'd highly suggest having normal in wall speakers for surround instead of a playbar. For the cost of the playbar and sub, you could get really nice speakers and a decent receiver. Run a sonos connect without amp to your main surround sound receiver to add Sonos connectivity to it. I'd also have a Connect w/Amp to drive the turntable speakers. You wouldn't need a phono pre amp as your turntable has it built in per your link.

For additional speakers within the house, buy either the standalone Play speakers or in wall speakers that tie to a Connect with Amp. You can create zones for each area. One thing im planning to do is send my TV audio signal into one of the inputs on a connect that I have. I'll then be able to use that to pipe TV audio to all Sonos zones. I haven't tried this yet, but can't expect that it wouldn't work correctly.

Also, check eBay before buying this stuff new. I got my components for a significant discount and they work great. You can get the older versions of the Connect (ZP-xx) for good deals, and they essentially are the same.

If you have any other questions, feel free to post them here or email <<<<@gmail.com.
