Hi, new to the forum.
I was gifted an NEC P580LE turntable and want to connect to my Sonos speakers. It needs a preamp and am wondering if it has one.
I’ve tried looking it up but can’t find any info. Does anyone know if it does?
Thanks so much in advance.

I thought Sonos speakers were for WiFi connection only. You will need a separate AMP with an integrated cartridge pre-amp built in, and proper Hi-Fi speakers, like the ones here:

Sonos speakers can be hardwired if needed. The turntable needs to have a preamp or I'll have to purchase a Sonos amp, which I don't want to do as they are expensive. I guess I'll just buy the appropriate adapter and see if it works.
