Warum sind eigentlich so viele "So machst Du Dein Multiroom Audio Setup" Seiten immer in der Form "Stell Lautsprecher auf, Starte App, Verbinde Lautsprecher mit Wifi".
Zentral nen Verstärker, paar Kabel und dazu passende Lautsprecher? Schwer zu finden.
ICH WILL KEINE SCH.... App und möglichst kein Wifi für den Kram. (Und am liebsten hätt ich ein Howto was ich wo einplane. Ja, Audio ist nicht ganz einfach, aber ich will auch kein Studio einrichten, meine Ansprüche sind kleiner....)
Do we have easy open-source solutions for multi-room audio these days? _And_ hardware for that use case?
What I'm looking for is basically a way to mirror the audio output of the computer at my desk over the network to other computers in my apartment. They should play whatever _it_ plays, regardless of whether it's web radio, Netflix, or game audio.
And the secondary players should be decent speakers with integrated computers and Wi-Fi, akin to a Sonos speaker.
My trusty #yamakawa DVD player finally failed (dried caps) with glibberish video output and I got a 15€ USB DVD drive for my #OSMC #kodi #raspberrypi driven fill-house-with-music-and-light rack instead. While at it, I did some cable-management to reduce the mess.
The #HarmanKardon hk6100/hk6200 are great, cheap, and easy to fix (got them in broken for cheap). The #szone 4 zone mixer was cheap/broken as well and requied some mechanical fix and mainly contact cleaning. Its great to route 4.0 surround sound and a bluetooth receiver and a CD player to 4 different amplifiers (3x harman kardon for different rooms and 1 subwoofer) and adjust volue and tone indivisually. The subwoofer (with built-in amp) was picked up from a pile of electronic junk - it had a radio receiver to be used with a soundbar. I just removed that and connected an analog audio input to the amplifier board.
As usual, the whole setup is a bit overengineered...
