Sonos Port - The Streaming Music Stereo Upgrade

The versatile streaming component for your stereo or receiver.

Connect Port to your traditional stereo to stream music and more. Enjoy control with the Sonos app or Apple AirPlay 2, and easily expand your sound system to more rooms.

Stream all your favourites

Enjoy music, podcasts, audiobooks, and internet radio with your amplified audio equipment. You can also stream vinyl, CDs, and stored audio files to Sonos speakers in other rooms of your home.

Apple AirPlay 2 on Sonos

Stream sound directly from your iPhone or iPad and ask Siri to play Apple Music.

Line-in and play

• Use the line-in to connect your phone or another device to your stereo.
• Audio line-in to bring your record player, CD player, or other audio source into the Sonos ecosystem.
• Audio line-out through either analogue (RCA) or digital (coaxial) for connecting amplified audio equipment.
• 12V trigger turns on your stereo or receiver automatically when a signal is sent so there are no extra steps or remote needed.
• Adjustable bass and treble controls to optimise sound performance. Adjust volume by individual room or by groups of rooms.

How is Port different from Connect?

Port is the successor to Connect, delivering richer sound and extending Sonos’s sound platform to your traditional home audio equipment. Port includes an updated digital-to-analogue converter for clearly detailed sound and a 12V trigger, which automatically turns on your amplifier in order to more reliably initiate playback. Port also allows you to control content using Apple AirPlay 2 and features a versatile design compatible with a standard AV rack.

What’s the difference between Port and Amp?

Whilst both Port and Amp offer streaming capabilities and allow you to bring your wired speakers into the Sonos system, the main difference between the products is amplification. Amp powers passive speakers, such as in-wall or in-ceiling speakers. Port cannot power audio equipment, which means it requires either a powered amplifier or powered speakers.

Do I need Port if I only plan on using Sonos wireless speakers?

No. Sonos wireless speakers, such as Sonos One or Beam, can connect directly to the Sonos system over WiFi without Port.

Can I connect Port to my turntable?

Yes, you can connect Port to your turntable to stream vinyl to Sonos speakers throughout your home.

What do I need to use Port with a turntable?

You'll need a turntable with a phono preamp as well as speakers. Plug in a standard audio-in connection to the back of Port. Then, in the Sonos app, go to Browse and select Line-in to control the sound.

Can I connect Port directly to a TV?

Port is not designed to be used with a TV. Port has an analogue audio input, which you could wire into a TV to stream audio to any Sonos component or speaker. That said, the line-in isn't designed for use with a TV and will result in some latency or lip sync issues whilst the audio is converted from analogue to digital.

Products with digital connections, such as Playbar, Playbase, Beam, and Amp, are recommended for use with a TV.
