Victrola’s Stream Turntables Expand Beyond Sonos with New Streaming Options
Big news! Victrola is making its popular Stream 'Works With Sonos' turntables even more versatile with a major software update.
When the Stream range first launched, its direct integration with Sonos was a real game-changer—these were the first turntables that could stream vinyl straight to Sonos speakers over Wi-Fi without the need for extra gear like a Sonos Port or Amp.
Now, thanks to an automatic over-the-air software update, the Victrola Stream Carbon, Pearl, Onyx, and Sapphire turntables are gaining new wireless streaming options, including Bluetooth, Roon, and UPnP support. This upgrade means vinyl lovers can connect to a broader range of speakers and audio gear, offering even more flexibility in how and where they enjoy their records. It's an exciting evolution for a product that was already a top choice for Sonos users and now it’s ready to shine in even more setups!

- Bluetooth Output: Victrola’s Stream turntables will now be able to connect directly to Bluetooth speakers and headphones. This provides greater flexibility and convenience, enabling high-quality wireless audio in any space and setup.
