Re: help please! whole house audio system



Easiest route to take is to install a Russound CAV6.6.  Six sources out to
six rooms.  Controlled via CAT5 at a double-gang wall plate and feeding
speakers from a built-in central amp.

If all you have is speaker wire (no cat5) then you'd have to look into a
passive system instead.

As for single speakers, they make round speaker units that will take both
left and right signals.  I use them in some bathrooms and a small kitchen.
They work great.
