Low volume with SONOS CONNECT
Hi
A client just replaced two different mini hifi systems with two SONOS CONNECTs
He hooked up the speakes that were previously connected to the mini hifi system
The sound is perceptible when it is cranked up to full blast
The sound volume was fine with the mini hifi system
Maybe I'm being thick but I just don't see what is causing this lack of sound,
caused by lack of power maybe, or the wires and connections used to hook up the speakers ?
Any ideas ?
thanks

Thanks for your answer
Indeed the speakers are directly connected to a CONNECT (no AMP functionality)
I think the client purchased this model because on a partner site they are using the same one without any amplification whatsoever - although the speakers used are vibration speakers.
Could the mixture of cabling explain further this situation ? A mix of electric cables and telephone cabling all connected together using 3M Scotchlok ?

Your speakers were designed to function with an amplifier (the mini hifi) and so they won't function correctly with just the CONNECT. You'll need an amplifier of some type between the speakers and the CONNECT.
