I don't know how many of you know of the cool HACS AB8SS speaker switcher, but it's a wonderful device. If you're looking for a controller that can switch 8 sets of stereo speakers (that's 16 speakers) on/off individually and be hooked up to an old amplifier (it provides impedance matching), this is the best thing out there. It can be controlled by:
* X-10
* IR
* Serial port
We installed ceiling speakers around the house and have them all hooked up to two AB8SS's. They work very well, and the quality is excellent.
Here's a link to a page about it: http://www.hacs.com/ab8ss.html It was written by the engineer who designed the device and isn't described all that well. Don't be scared by the price, I got mine much cheaper.
Anyway, I wanted HomeSeer to have control of the box directly, instead of through X-10 or IR so I would get the fastest response time and always know the status. Here is a plug-in to do just that.
Best wishes to all,
