Hi all
thought I would share a project I just finished for the house
was looking around for ages for some type of multiroom audio system, and there are many. Some pricey, some not so pricey
now I know this type of setup doesnt provide seperate audio in each room/zone.. but it does allow you to play music in different rooms.. and selectively turn other rooms off
but I wanted to use my PC cause thats where all my music is..
so I put this together and it works perfectly, so maybe somebody else can make use of it too....
from the PC a basic 3.5 mm audio connector goes to a PC amp (max 200W)
this is Ebay item number - 370104011124
then connect the AMP to a Radioshack 4 Way Speaker Selector Switch Box
Ebay item number - 220508198647
the buttons on the front will be your rooms/zones which you can label
the run some audio cable to various speakers..
I started with the bathroom, cause we all love a warble in the shower, and its great for when you are getting ready to head out..
100w Marine waterproof speakers
Ebay item number - 190289411564
and there you have it, I run my internet radio stations and mp3s all over the huose.. some rooms or all rooms...
and these bad boys for the kitchen..
