Sonos CONNECT
The Sonos CONNECT™ is designed to be used with an external amplifier. It contains both analog and digital
outputs so you can easily connect it to your existing audio equipment.
   • Use a CONNECT to listen to music in a room where you already have an amplifier, such as your home
     theater system or the stereo system in your family room.
   • Use a CONNECT to listen to music in your home office where you already have a computer or a pair of
     powered speakers.
   • Use a CONNECT if you have a distributed audio system that is driven from an amplifier in one central
     location with speaker wires home-run to this central location.

New to Sonos?
It takes just a few steps to get Sonos up and running—simply follow the setup instructions packaged with
your CONNECT. Once you’ve got it set up, you can add additional Sonos products any time.

Adding to an existing Sonos system?
Sonos can be easily expanded room by room. You can turn directly to Adding to an Existing Sonos System
if you are adding this CONNECT to an existing Sonos system.

Your Home Network
To use the Sonos app, your device must be on the same network as Sonos. If you need help, please go to
http://faq.sonos.com/searching.

Requirements
To access music services, Internet radio, and music stored on your computer or Network-Attached Storage
(NAS) device, make sure your network meets these requirements.

Note: Make sure your network has a high-speed Internet connection because
Sonos is designed to provide you with free, online software updates. Your Sonos
system must be registered to receive these updates so be sure to register during
the setup process. We do not share your e-mail address with other companies.

    • High-speed DSL/cable modem, or fiber-to-the-home broadband connection for proper playback of
      music services. (If your Internet service provider only offers satellite Internet access, you may experience
      playback issues due to fluctuating download rates.)
    • If your modem isn’t a modem/router combination and you want to take advantage of Sonos’ automatic
      online updates or use a streaming music service, you’ll need to install a wireless router before setting up
      Sonos.

Note: Sonos communicates over a 2.4GHz home network supporting 802.11
b/g/n wireless technology. 802.11n only network configurations are not
supported—you can either change the router settings to 802.11 b/g/n or connect a
Sonos product to your router.

    • Connect a Sonos BOOST or speaker to your router if:
      • You have a larger home where the WiFi performance isn’t reliable and you want to strengthen the
        wireless performance of your Sonos system.
      • Your WiFi network is already in high demand with streaming video and web surfing and you want to
        create a separate wireless network exclusively for your Sonos speakers.
      • Your network is 5GHz only (not switchable to 2.4GHz).
      • You have configured your router to support only 802.11n and can’t change the settings to support
        802.11 b/g/n.
    • For best results, you should connect the computer or NAS drive that contains your personal music library
      collection to your network router using an Ethernet cable.

    • Sonos app (Android)—Android 4.0 and higher; certain features require later versions.

CONNECT Back




Ethernet ports (2)           You can use an Ethernet cable (supplied) to connect to a router,
                             computer, or additional network device such as a network-attached
                             storage (NAS) device.
                             LED indicators:
                                 • Flashing Green (network activity)
                                 • Yellow (link connection)

AC power (mains) input       Use only the supplied power cord to connect to a power outlet (using a
(100 - 240 VAC, 50/60 Hz)    third party power cord will void your warranty).

Analog audio in              Use a standard RCA audio cable to connect the audio outputs from a
                             separate audio component such as a CD player, to the Sonos
                             CONNECT’s analog audio inputs.

Analog audio out             Use a standard RCA audio cable to connect the Sonos product’s
                             analog audio outputs to the audio inputs on a separate audio
                             component, such as an amplifier or your home theater receiver.

TOSLINK® digital audio out   You can use a TOSLINK optical audio cable to connect the Sonos
                             CONNECT’s TOSLINK digital audio output to the audio inputs on a
                             separate audio component, such as an amplifier or your home theater
                             receiver.

Coaxial digital audio out    You can use a digital coaxial cable to connect the Sonos product’s
                             coaxial digital audio output to the audio inputs on a separate audio
                             component, such as an amplifier or your home theater receiver.


Sonos CONNECT                                                                                                 5


Adding to an Existing Sonos System
Once you’ve got your Sonos system set up, you can easily add more Sonos products any time (up to 32). Use
the Sonos CONNECT’s audio outputs to connect it to a home theater, computer, powered speakers, or
amplifier.
If your house has structured (built-in) wiring, you can make a wired connection to the additional Sonos
products. If you don’t have structured wiring, our built-in wireless technology is ideal for you.
1. Attach the power cord and plug in the Sonos CONNECT.
   The Audio indicator (green) and the Player status indicator (white) will begin to flash.
2. Choose one of the following options:
   Connect to a home theater or amplifier




   • If you have digital inputs on your home theater or amplifier, you can use either a TOSLINK® optical audio
     cable or a digital coaxial cable to connect the Sonos CONNECT’s digital output to the digital input on the
     receiver.
   • If you have analog inputs on your home theater or amplifier, use a standard RCA audio cable to connect
     the Sonos CONNECT’s analog audio output to the audio inputs on the receiver.
   • Select the proper input channel on the receiver. See Controlling the volume from your home theater or
     amplifier to adjust volume settings.
   Connect to a computer or powered speakers
   • If you are connecting to your computer: You will need a stereo mini to RCA Y-adapter audio cable (one
     1/8-inch stereo miniplug to dual RCA male connectors) to connect the Sonos product’s analog audio
     output to the computer’s audio input.
   • If you are connecting to powered speakers: You may need a Y-adapter audio cable (one 1/8-inch
     stereo miniplug to dual RCA male connectors) to connect the computer’s speakers to the audio outputs
     on the Sonos product. If your speakers have a male 1/8-inch stereo plug, you will need to attach a
     female-to-female coupler between the speaker plug and the Y-adapter audio cable.

3. If you are making a wireless connection, skip this step and continue on to step 4. If you are making a wired
    connection, connect a standard Ethernet cable from your router or another Sonos product (or a live
    network wall plate if you have built-in wiring) to one of the Ethernet switch connections on the back of the
    new Sonos product.
4. Choose one of the following options:
    • Using the Sonos app on a mobile device: Select Add a Player or SUB from Settings and follow the on-
      screen prompts to add this product to Sonos.
    • Using the Sonos app on a Mac or PC: Select Add a Player or SUB from the Manage menu and follow
      the prompts to add the new product to Sonos.
Thick walls, 2.4 GHz cordless telephones, or the presence of other wireless devices can interfere with or block
the wireless network signals from Sonos. If you experience difficulty after positioning a Sonos product, try one
or more of the following resolutions—relocate the Sonos product; change the wireless channel your music
system is operating on; connect a Sonos product to your router if your setup is currently wireless.


Using Line-In
You can connect an external source like a portable music player to any Sonos player that has a line-in
connection. The source will be automatically detected as soon as you plug it in.
To a portable music player: Use a 1/8 inch mini-stereo to RCA audio cable—plug the mini-stereo end into
the portable device and the RCA end into the Audio In connection on the Sonos player.
To an external source like a CD player: Plug a standard RCA cable into the analog Audio In connections on
the back of your Sonos player.
Playing music
Using a mobile device: Touch Line-In from the Menu and choose the line-in device.

Using a Mac or PC: Choose Line-In from the MUSIC pane. Click              next to the music source and choose
Play Now.

Changing the settings
Using a mobile device: Go to Settings and choose Room Settings. Choose the Sonos speaker the source
is connected to and touch Line-In.
Using a Mac or PC: Go to Manage -> Settings (PC) or Sonos -> Preferences -> Room Settings (Mac).
Choose the Sonos speaker the source is connected to from the Room Settings for drop-down and click the
Line-In tab.
Settings:
    • Line-In Source Name: Choose a name from the list.
    • Line-In Source Level: A default (typical) line-in source level is automatically assigned for each source. If
      the volume sounds too low, you can choose a higher line level. (You may experience clipping at higher
      volume levels if you set the level too high.)
    • Autoplay Room: Choose the room you want this line-in source to play in whenever it’s connected to
      Sonos.
    • Include Grouped Rooms: Turn on if you want the line-in source to play in rooms that are grouped with
      the autoplay room.


Sonos CONNECT                                                                                                 7

   • Use Autoplay Volume: Click the Use Autoplay Volume box if you want to use the external source to
     adjust the volume in the autoplay room. Use the slider to set a default volume.

Line-in encoding settings
When you have line-in music sources attached to a Sonos product, line-in encoding determines how Sonos
will encode the data coming in from these sources. Your Sonos system defaults to automatic in order to
provide the optimal playback experience. Sonos recommends you do not change this default. However, if you
decide to make a change, we recommend the following usage guidelines:
Use Uncompressed if:
   • You want optimal performance with home theaters.
   • You want to produce the highest quality sound for your Sonos system (this selection requires more
     network bandwidth than compressed audio.)
Use Compressed if:
    • You are connecting more than 4 rooms wirelessly.
    • You are in an environment with heavy wireless interference and are experiencing dropouts.
To change the line-in encoding setting, select one of the following options:
   • Using the Sonos app on a mobile device: From Settings, select Advanced Settings -> Audio
     Compression.
   • Using the Sonos app on a PC: Select Manage -> Settings -> Advanced.
   • Using the Sonos app on a Mac: Select Sonos -> Preferences -> Advanced.


Line-Out
Controlling the volume from your home theater or amplifier
To control the volume exclusively from your home theater or amplifier, you can change the line-out level on the
Sonos CONNECT to Fixed by selecting one of the following options:
   • Using the Sonos app on a mobile device: Select Room Settings from Settings. Select the Sonos
     product attached to the receiver. Select Line-Out Level, and choose Fixed.
   • Using the Sonos app on a PC: Select Manage -> Settings. Select the Sonos product attached to the
     receiver. Choose Fixed from the Line-Out Level drop-down on the Basic tab.
   • Using the Sonos app on a Mac: Select Sonos -> Preferences -> Rooms Settings. Select the Sonos
     product attached to the receiver, and then choose Fixed from the Line-Out Level drop-down on the
     Basic tab.
Note: When you change the line-out level to Fixed on your Sonos CONNECT you
will not be able to adjust the volume or the equalization settings using a Sonos app.

Controlling the volume from Sonos
1. Adjust your home theater or amplifier’s volume to typical listening volume.
2. If the line-out level is not currently set to Variable, you will need to change it:
   • Using the Sonos app on a mobile device: Select Room Settings from Settings. Select the Sonos
      product attached to the receiver. Select Line-Out Level and choose Variable.
   • Using the Sonos app on a PC: Select Manage -> Settings. Select the Sonos product attached to the
      receiver, and then choose Variable from the Line-Out Level drop-down on the Basic tab.
   • Using the Sonos app on a Mac: Select Sonos -> Preferences -> Rooms Settings. Select the Sonos
      product attached to the receiver, and then choose Variable from the Line-Out Level drop-down on the
      Basic tab.
3. Use the Sonos app to adjust the volume on your Sonos system so you can hear music. This may be at the
   high end of the volume scale.
4. If desired, you can readjust the volume on your home theater system or amplifier so that the volume range
   for the app falls within your typical listening range.


Playing Music
Make a selection from the Menu on your mobile device or from the MUSIC pane on a Mac or PC.

Radio
Sonos includes a radio guide that provides immediate access to thousands of free Internet radio stations and
broadcast programs. You can easily find radio from all over the world—music, news, and variety
programming, including archived shows and podcasts.
To select an Internet radio station, simply select Radio by TuneIn and choose a station.

Music services
A music service is an online music store or online service that sells audio on a per-song, per audiobook, or
subscription basis. Sonos is compatible with several music services - you can visit our website at
www.sonos.com/music for the latest list. (Some music services may not be available in your country. Please
check the individual music service’s website for more information.)
If you are currently subscribed to a music service that’s compatible with Sonos, simply add your music service
user name and password information to Sonos as needed and you’ll have instant access to the music service
from your Sonos system.
1. To add a music service, touch Add Music Services from the Menu.
2. Select the Sonos-compatible music service you would like to add.
3. Select Add to Sonos, and then follow the on-screen prompts. Your login and password will be verified
    with the music service. As soon as your credentials have been verified, the music service displays on the
    Menu.
Free music service trials are available in some countries. (Please check the individual music service’s website
for more information.) If there is a music service trial visible on the Music Services menu, simply touch it to
select. Touch Add to Sonos -> I’m new to [music service], and then follow the prompts to activate the
music trial. After the trial period is up, you will need to subscribe to the music service to keep the music
playing.

I have a new router
If you purchase a new router or change your ISP (Internet service provider), you will need to restart all your
Sonos products after the router is installed.
Note: If the ISP technician connects a Sonos product to the new router, you only
need to restart your wireless Sonos products.

1. Disconnect the power cord from all of your Sonos products for at least 5 seconds.
2. Reconnect them one at a time, starting with the Sonos product that is connected to your router (if one is
     usually connected).
     Wait for your Sonos products to restart. The status indicator light will change to solid white on each
     product when the restart is complete.
If your Sonos setup is completely wireless (you don’t keep a Sonos product connected to your router), you
will also need to change your wireless network password. Follow the steps below:
1. Temporarily connect one of your Sonos players to the new router with an Ethernet cable.
2. Select Advanced Settings -> Wireless Setup from the Settings menu.
     Sonos will detect your network.
3. Enter the password for your wireless network.
4. Once the password is accepted, unplug the player from your router and move it back to its original
     location.

I want to change my wireless network password
If your Sonos system is set up wirelessly and you change your wireless network password, you will also need
to change it on your Sonos system.
1. Temporarily connect one of your Sonos players to your router with an Ethernet cable.
2. Choose one of the following options:
   • Using the Sonos app on a mobile device, select Settings -> Advanced Settings -> Wireless Setup.
   • Using the Sonos app on a PC, select Settings -> Advanced from the Manage menu. On the General
      tab, select Wireless Setup.
   • Using the Sonos app on a Mac, select Preferences -> Advanced from the Sonos menu. On the General
      tab, select Wireless Setup.
3. Enter the new wireless network password when prompted.
4. Once the password is accepted, you can unplug the player from your router and move it back to its
   original location.
