It should be possible to use the Sonos 'Connect'.  At least according to Sonos:

http://www.sonos.com/shop/products/connect

You should then be able to expand the system if you want.

How were you thinking of utilising the Century with a Sonos system?  What do you want to achieve as there may be better options?

Dave.

The Century has an Aux-in - you can connect the 'Sonos Connect' to it.

In order to use the volumen control of the Century as usuall - via Beo4 or directly - the sound-output from the Sonos should be set to fixed line-out.

Of course you will have to choose the Aux of the Century - again via Beo4 or directly - before you start feeding the Sonos with music.

Tip! If you combine the timer function of the Sonos with the one of the Century, you could even use it for waiking you up in the morning - as an example.

The Connect has an 'analog input' - you could use that for a turntable, if needed.

The analog and the digital outputs are all active, and can be used at the same time. If you have a BeoVision nearby/in a nearby room, you could use the digital out to feed the television in order to hear the music from the Sonos through the (connected) speakers too. And if it is a BV with MasterLink, (dependent on your setup) you can even use that source in every link-room.

There is a tv - and there is a BV
