Connecting a turntable through Wi-Fi can be difficult and costly, depending on how you choose to set things up. The easiest and cheapest way to use a turntable with Wi-Fi—based wireless audio systems is to bypass the Wi-Fi and make an analog connection. Many Wi-Fi speakers have an analog input that you can connect directly to a phono preamp or a turntable with a built-in phono preamp.
If you wish to keep the Wi-Fi speakers wireless, you have two possible approaches. If your Wi-Fi speaker also offers Bluetooth and your turntable has Bluetooth, you can use that wireless connection method instead of Wi-Fi.
If not, you need to buy a device that bridges your turntable and your wireless audio system. For Sonos, that device is the Port you can also use the analog input on a Sonos Play:5 speaker to send signals from your turntable to your entire Sonos system. No Yes You said.

Francis - I always try to answer questions thoroughly here in the comments section, but that naturally doesn't allow for much back-and-forth conversation.
Your best bet to talk to one of our Advisors is to call or use the chat feature on our website. Hope this helps! Beau - If you're connecting to an RCA input that's not a phono stage, there probably isn't a place on the speakers to connect the ground, so you'd just leave it disconnected on that end. If you get hum, check in with our tech support to see if they have some strategies for defeating it.
KD - Thanks for the inquiry, I'll see what I can do for you! The first thing I see is that this turntable does not have a built-in preamp, and we have three ways to handle that: connect to an integrated amp with a phono input , use a dedicated preamp between 'table and receiver, or connect directly to powered speakers with phono input. I live in an apartment, so I use the last option, and my favorite in that regard is the Kanto TUK speaker system.
It saves you a lot of space, sounds great with vinyl love the AMT tweeter sound , and you can plug other components into it. Nina - I found a scanned manual for the RPLA online that makes it pretty clear that this model does not have a built-in preamp. It will do the basic job you need it to do. That could change in the future, but that's the deal right now!
Hope to hear from you soon. Richard - In all honesty, I have never considered making a non-analog connection for my turntable. For me, keeping it analog is the whole point. So I'm not aware of anything I'd consider an audiophile option for turning MC into digital. Sorry, hope you find something that works! Dermot - If you're using the phono input and connecting the ground, I can't account for where else a hum might be coming from.
Check it every few weeks, and if it looks blunt then replace it. Needles are inexpensive and really easy to buy online. In fact, I do it all the time, and I really like the idea of buying records from the time they were made. That said, always check the quality of a used record before you buy it. Avoid scratches, and make sure the grooves all look okay. The last thing you want is to buy a damaged record that will mess up your sensitive system.
I recommend cleaning all new old records before first playing them, and then clean them regularly to avoid damage. A dirty stylus will massively impact the sound quality of every record you play, and might even cause damage. Cleaning the stylus is really easy, and can simply be wiped with a cloth.
However, you can buy special equipment if you want to do things properly. Either way, make sure you clean it at least once a week. Not only that, but it has its own phono preamp!
The cartridge is the part that turns record movement into audio signals, using magnets. Turntables should come with a setup guide to adjust it properly, but you can always replace the standard with a superior one. Connecting your turntable to a home theater system is actually very easy, and means you can take full advantage of your good speakers. If you do decide to add a turntable with a built-in phono stage or use an external phono stage, you need to avoid the phono input on your receiver and use one of the standard pairs of RCA terminals.
You need one of the Sonos units with a standard pair of stereo analogue terminals. Connect the turntable to any of the Sonos devices listed above, and whatever vinyl you play on it can be streamed to every other Sonos in the house.
Most offer a similar route to turntable integration. And even if your wireless speaker is entirely lacking physical inputs, you can connect a Bluetooth turntable such as the Sony PS-LXBT , which we gave five stars for both its wired and wireless audio talents. In short, practically any wireless speaker can be connected to a turntable.
