Turning Off Music System
Your Sonos Multi-Room Music System is designed to be always on; the system uses
minimal electricity whenever it is not playing music. To quickly stop streaming music
in all zones, you can use the
Pause All
feature.
• Using a handheld Sonos Controller, select
Pause All
from the
Zone
menu.
• Using the Sonos Controller for Mac or PC, select
Pause All
from the
Play
menu.
Your ZonePlayers will remain
off
until you press
Play
to restart each zone or zone
group.
Using Line-out

ZonePlayer. Depending on your ZonePlayer model, you can use analog or digital
audio outputs to connect to an external amplifier. The ZonePlayer 90 has both digital
and analog outputs, while the ZonePlayer 100 has analog outputs. The ZonePlayer
120 is not designed with audio outputs.
