Wireless Turntable/Wiim/Sonos

[Bordersfox]

Can any techy people help with this?

 

I have a legacy (think that's the wanky term for it) sound system inherited from my old man (not dead just deaf).  It's a really good set up with a turntable that goes to a pre-amp and then the main amp.

 

Only issue is we're sometimes in the kitchen or snug when we want to listen to vinyl so I want to be able to stream the music via speakers into other rooms.  There's hundreds of records including proper obscure stuff that will never be on Spotify etc 

 

Anyone have any experience with streamers like Wiim or Sonos Port?  Are they easy to set up?  Is the sound quality okay etc? Presumably they connect to the amp and you then use an app to stream to whichever wireless speaker you want?

I've bought two Sonos Era100's and configured in a stereo pair that do a pretty good impression of quality hifi speakers. 

 

Sorry, can't help with the vinyl streaming question as I've ripped all my music to a music library stored on a NAS. Flac files sound great so not sure if the quality is improved by listening to vinyl. Dunno.

 

Sometimes you can find those obscure albums on CD in charity shops and Ebay for not very much.

no expert but don't think you'll enjoy the full potential of your turntable if you use it wireless with bluetooth

might be wrong though
