Choose one of the following options:
2.
• To play music from this line-in source, select Line-in from the Music menu, select the room the device is connected to,
and touch Play Now.
• To change the settings for this line-in source, select Room Settings from the Settings menu.
Select the Sonos component this device is connected to, and then touch Line-In.
• Line-In Source Name: Select a component name from the list.
• Line-In Source Level: A default (typical) line-in source level is automatically assigned based upon the source
name. (If the volume sounds too low, you can select a higher line level. You may experience clipping at higher vol-
ume levels if you set the level too high.)
• Autoplay Room: Select the room you want your line-in source to play in whenever it's connected to Sonos. You can
also select Include Grouped Rooms so that any rooms grouped with the autoplay room will play the same music.
• Use Autoplay Volume. Set Use Autoplay Volume to Yes if you intend to use your line-in device to adjust the volume
in the autoplay room. Use the slider to set a default volume for the autoplay room whenever the line-in device is
connected.
Changing the audio compression setting
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.
From the Settings menu, touch Advanced Settings.
1.

2.
Select Compressed or Uncompressed.

Line-out
You can easily connect your home theater, stereo, or powered speakers to a CONNECT. Depending on the model, you can use
analog or digital audio outputs to connect to an external amplifier. The SONOS CONNECT has both digital and analog outputs,
while the Player 100 has analog outputs. The SONOS CONNECT:AMP is not designed with audio outputs.
