I've searched around and don't think I'm repeating this...
I have a Squeezebox and want to connect it to ceiling speakers in at least 3 but preferably up to 6 rooms. Ultimately then to control it with Homeseer but I've seen some useful posts on that.
I've looked at all sorts like Russound, Opus, ELAN and so on but is there any device that will take a digital optical or stereo phono audio feed from the sqeezebox then send it out to 3-6 rooms via speaker cable?
The next problem is powering the speakers. The hi-fi I have in the kitchen is a single unit, with two speakers. The speakers connect to the main unit/amp with speaker cable only e.g no separate PSUs - I was hoping to acheive the same thing with the in-ceiling speakers if that's possible? As far as I know that makes them standard issue passive speakers?
The closest I've found so far is this (http://www.keene.co.uk/electronics/m...p?mycode=BT913) from Keene but it takes audio in via speaker cable and I don't yet know if it can power speakers..
If I do end up with active ceiling speakers, what's the best way to power them - provision a separate ring into the attic for them or spur off something?
Thanks.
