By connecting the Sonos Port to a Meridian 218/251/818 via Coax the audio stream bypasses the Sonos Port DAC and instead relies on the Meridian DAC.

That's interesting. In my head, I thought of it being a convivence solution but it sounds like a performance enhancement too.

Carlton9000 has a Sonos Port connected between his 218 and DSP5000’s - albeit used for AirPlay for family members’ use.
If anyone has reservations about the DAC bypass performance on the 218/Sonos Port combination it’s probably worth your time on asking him.
Given the 12v input on Sonos Port it can be powered by PrimePSU, if you own one.
