Yes, it is called simply the Sonos Connect<https://www.amazon.com/Sonos-Wireless-Receiver-Component-Streaming/dp/B001CROHX6> and it has 1 RCA analogue input, 1 analogue RCA output as well as 1 Tosslink Optical and 1 Coax Digital output so you can connect it to an older amp/receiver via the left and right RCA connection or, if your receiver/amp has Optical Digital or Coax Digital inputs use one of them. The link is for a listing on Amazon, the Connect is $349 and it works great, I have 3 of them although I currently only use 2 after upgrading some rooms at my house where I had in-wall speakers powered by the old Connect Amp with a stereo set of Sonos One speakers. This allowed me to take my Connect Amps to my business where I used to have the Connect hooked up to an old Onkyo receiver.

The new Sonos Amp replaces the old Connect Amp which started in 2006 as the ZP 100. The Connect Amp allowed you to hook up regular speakers with speaker cable just like you would to a receiver or amplifier and it delivered 55 Watts per channel on twpo channels for a total of 110 Watts of stereo power. The new Sonos Amp delivers up to 4 channels for two sets of speakers at an impressive 125 Watts per channel, i.e. 250 Watts for a stereo pair and 500 Watts in total. Of course it also supports Airplay 2 as all new Sonos devices do and it will support Alexa and coming down the road Google Assistant but it does not have built-in microphones (not sure how exactly that one will work). It also has an HDMI ARC input so you can directly connect a TV and it has a new form factor compatible with the old 19 inch rack standard at 1.5 rack units tall (approx. 2.5 inches). Professional installers will have access to it already on December 1 so they get it about 2 months or so before the general public can buy it. This answers a question I was wondering about which was whether Sonos at some point would come out with an in-wall or in-ceiling version of their Sonos One, Play 3 or Play 5. I guess this is the answer, they won’t probably because providing in-ceiling or in-wall power to one of these stand-alone speakers may not be practical so they continue to support regular built-in speakers with the new and much more powerful Sonos Amp and accpording to the information provided Sonos has partners with Sonance, the maker of a well-known line of such speakers, to come out with a series of speakers especially designed to work best with this new Sonos Amp. The Sonos Amp will be $599 US and $799 Canadian.
