Using Line-out
You can easily connect your home theater, stereo, or powered speakers to a Sonos CONNECT. Depending
on the model, you can use analog or digital audio outputs to connect to an external amplifier. The CONNECT
has both digital and analog outputs, while the ZonePlayer 100 has analog outputs. The CONNECT:AMP is not
designed with audio outputs.
For instructions on connecting a device, see the documentation included with your Sonos product. Also, go to
