Audio round the house options?

I am now in the final stages of my self-build and am starting to think how
=
to implement music/audio around the place.

My wiring/cabling consists of a network of pairs of heavy duty loudspeaker
=
cables out to speaker locations in the ceiling of each room.
The intention was to allow for central control of the system from my Node
0=
.
I also provided CAT 5 at several points around each room to allow for IR
co=
ntrol if necessary, but I imagine that wireless will have superseded that
i=
dea?

At the time of planning/implementing this network, there was not a great
de=
al of choice in audio/control systems and I would now like to know what
the=
up to date options are.

So please feel free to flood me with ideas :-)

Many thanks

Tracey
