Turning Off Music System

Your Sonos Multi-Room Music System is designed to be always on; the system uses minimal electricity whenever it is not playing music. To stop streaming music in all zones, you can use the Pause All feature.

Using the Sonos Controller, select Pause All from the Zone menu.

Using the Desktop Controller software, select Pause All from the Play menu.

Your ZonePlayers will remain off until you press Play to restart each zone or zone group.

Using Line-out

You can easily connect your home theater, stereo, or powered speakers to a ZonePlayer. Depending on your ZonePlayer model, you can use analog or digital audio outputs to connect to an external amplifier. The ZonePlayer 90/80 has both digital and analog outputs, while the ZonePlayer 100 has analog outputs. The ZonePlayer 120 is not designed with audio outputs.
