SONOS CONNECT 5
Adding to an Existing Sonos System
Once you’ve got your Sonos system set up, you can easily add more Sonos components any time. 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 components. If you
don’t have structured wiring, our built-in wireless technology is ideal for you.

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. To adjust the volume settings, see "Controlling the volume from your
home theater or amplifier".
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 component’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 component. 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.
