How Do I Set Up Multi-Room Audio in My Home?

Imagine this: It’s a sunny Sunday in Australia, the smell of BBQ fills the air, and the sweet melodies of your favourite playlist float effortlessly from your patio to your kitchen and even your bathroom. That, my friends, is the power of a multi-room audio system, and it’s easier to achieve than you may think – all you need is an audio-visual installation!

Why Would You Want Multi-Room Audio?

Think back to Jenny and Mark, one of our favourite client couples from Melbourne. They adored their classic rock but always faced the dilemma of whether to blast it in the living room or keep it confined to their patio during gatherings. With multi-room audio, they can now host their epic BBQs with Led Zeppelin greeting you at the door and accompanying you to the grill.

What Do You Need to Get Started?

If you’re interested in turning your home into a multi-room audio oasis, you’ll need a few essential components:

  • Audio Source: Spotify, Apple Music, or your timeless vinyl collection—this is the heart of your setup.
  • Amplifier: To give that audio source the ‘oomph’ it deserves.
  • Speakers: Choose between wired or wireless.
  • Controller: Generally, a smartphone app that acts like a remote control for your system.
