I have a pair of SONOS Era 100 and I wanted to connect them to my macbook on analogue to reduce the delay in audio to vie etc. After connecting the macbook to analog, the speakers started buzzing. After a bit of research, I figured out that the problem is caused by the fact that both the speakers and my mac are each plugged into a different power outlet and thus have different 'grounding,' which causes the buzzing. After disconnecting the power cord from the macbook, or after connecting all the speakers and macbook to the same socket, the noise partially stopped, but did not completely disappear. After thinking for a long time about what it could be, I came to the conclusion that a ground isolator could solve it, but after researching this topic on the Reddit community, where several people had the same problem (connecting a SONOS Era 100 to analog with a macbook) and they also used the mentioned ground isolator and mentioned that the ground isolator didn't solve the problem either, I came to the conclusion that it's not worth it. Because analog audio is lower quality anyway and it just doesn't work well. I've also tried connecting to an old iPod. The buzzing was less, but still audible. I would also like to point out that in SONOS I have set the in-line adapter source specifically for mac and set the lowest possible latency. Another problem was that despite the buzzing, there was an audio drop out between one and the other SONOS Era 100 speaker. The dropouts were small but audible and definitely not something you want to tolerate with speakers this expensive. So this cable is only good if you want to connect it to a turntable, but beware, probably if you only want to connect one SONOS speaker, as you'll have dropouts when pairing to a stereo anyway. So from my point of view, it's practically useless. The cable is priced by SONOS as being unnecessarily expensive and doesn't really do anything because an iPod, iPhone or anything except a turntable won't sound as it should and you'll have noise.
The solution is only for the situation Turntable (analog) --> Sonos speaker
Not suitable for connecting macbook to SONOS speakers (unbearable noise).
When pairing two ERA 100 speakers, there were audio dropouts between one speaker and the other, which normally do not occur with wi-fi connections via air play.
Some reddit users report that even a grounding isolator did not solve the problem.

It works
I find it outrageous that what the competition has in the base wants a sonos for almost a litre extra

the possibility to reduce the audio delay is necessary
