This stuff just always makes me think of Pinkman talking stereo set up.BennyBeaver said:
Wish I could help but it's way out of my line. I specialize in in 2 channel, hi fi and know amps, speakers, turn tables and cd players pretty well. Beyond this niche I suck. -
If you're Apple-centric, get a AppleTV box, or check this list for AirPlay compatible receivers

Is that a Sonos?BennyBeaver said:And the answer is:
If you’re not an audiophile or someone who only listens to vinyl records because you’re a hipster, Sonos is the shit.
I have 9 total Sonos speakers throughout my house and detached garage. I can play the same thing throughout the house or have something different in every room. -
Yes, Sonos Amp. It’s hooked up to the aforementioned Sonance speakers. It sounds great.CFetters_Nacho_Lover said:

For hi-fi in Seattle it's Hawthorne Stereo by a mile. Definitive is nice too, but they are a bit snooty and the place where rich guys who just want to show off go.
