Adding Aux - Fixing Sonos Play:1's Biggest Flaw
Why oh why, Sonos, why did you make such wonderful speakers and leave out the most basic functionality. To save these from going into the landfill, I took it upon myself to do a little research and make this video showing the process for adding auxiliary input to these speakers.
**NOTE**
This mod as I have shown it only enables the mid-driver. If you want to have the functionality of tweeter, you will need to add an additional low/high pass filter due to the intricacies of how this system was made. Below I will provide a link to the guide that helped me to make this video as well as go more in-depth on how and why each modification was done, including the use of a filter to enable the tweeter. Having just the mid-driver does provide adequate sound, however, which is just fine for the purpose this will serve.

This 15 R3 has the 6820HK and the GTX 1070. You may think the pre-applied paste looks familiar, and that is because it is actually Arctic Silver 5. This is my second attempt at repasting and the Arctic Silver really didn't do a very good job. (Maybe it was too thick?) The Thermal Grizzly paste did perform marginally better, but still too hot for comfort. Even after undervolting by -0.150v in XT...

    Totally a Butcher job getting an Power amp module from Amanzon and eliminate all Just use the existing power supply and the speaker. Or better install a 4066 and use some logic to switch Sonos to Aux input or a bluetooth module mentioned below.

      If you have a younger child, I would not recommend changing the exhaust on the car since the increased noise could make it less comfortable. There is an areo component to the underside of the stock exhaust that helps to reduce wind noise and vibration and that is exactly what you want when the car needs to sound and feel smooth.
