Yes you can, although please read this FAQ first!
Firstly, it is worth mentioning that if you have not yet purchased (or if you have recently purchased) the Sonos Connect:Amp system, we would strongly advise you to return the Connect:Amp unit and swap it for a Sonos Connect unit which has audio out sockets for direct connection of Beolab speakers. In brief, the Connect is designed for powered speakers such as Beolab, whilst the Connect:Amp is designed for traditional passive speakers.
If you do choose to use the Connect:Amp unit it requires using a special Attenuated Speaker Converter (which reduces the amplified outputs of the Connect:Amp to safe levels for the Beolab speakers to accept). Additionally, you will need the right cable from the list below:
Which cables do I need?
- For Beolab speakers with RCA/ Phono Line input socket types:
- Beolab Speaker Line In Cables or our Bespoke cables which are hand-built to order

- Beolab 4000 mk.1
- Beolab 4500
- Beolab 5000
- Beolab 6000

- It may also be used with older BeoLab speakers that have displays (such as Beolab 3000, 4500, 5000 and Penta), but the displays will not function.
- For Beolab speakers with 8 pin DIN Powerlink Line input socket types:
- Beolab Speaker Line In Cables or our Bespoke cables which are hand-built to order
- Suitable for the following models:
- Beolab 3

NOTE: Beolab 2 Subwoofer or Centre Speaker bars
- If you have a Beolab 2 subwoofer, or a Beolab 7-x/ Beolab 10 dedicated centre speakers, these each need a powered cable to generate the trigger signals that would normally be sent from a B&O television Powered Trigger Cable
Please set all speakers to “Line” mode using the small switch next to the input sockets.
