Line-in
You can connect an external audio source like an Apple
®
AirPlay
®
device, CD player, TV, MP3 player or more to a Sonos
component via line-in and stream the audio to any or all Sonos components around your house. So, go ahead:
• Connect an Apple AirPlay device such as AirPort Express
®
via line-in and play music wirelessly from your iPhone
®
, iPad™
or iPod touch
®
in any or every room of your home.
• Connect an external audio source like a CD player via line-in and listen to the CDs you haven’t had time to rip yet.
• Connect your TV to a Sonos component and listen to the big game on the patio while cooking on the grill.
Connecting an AirPort Express to your Sonos system
1. Connect the AirPort Express to your PLAY:5 (or other Sonos component with an audio in connection):
• Connect the 3.5mm audio cable (supplied with the PLAY:5) to the analog audio in connector from the back of your
PLAY:5 to the line-out connector on the AirPort Express. (If you are connecting to a different Sonos component, you can
use a standard RCA audio cable.)
• Connect an Ethernet cable from the Ethernet port on the AirPort Express to an Ethernet port on your SONOS PLAY:5.
• Plug the AirPort Express into a power outlet.
Note: You can listen to music from the external device in any room, and use the Sonos
Wireless HiFi System to control the volume settings. However you must control the playback
(forward, pause, etc.) from the line-in source.
