Good stuff. Which speaker have you chosen for the shower?

Many thanks

I switch my Quads fine... They may make a sound, but it's rather
quieter than the relay click of the appliance module, so I don't
notice it.

Newer power amps where the front switch does thermal protection type
stuff may be more of a challenge.

I've got a ceiling speaker on order for the shower - that's going to
be controlled by an AM on a Meridian power amp... I'll let you know
how it sounds next week :-)
