Bill, thanks for the advice. I am planning to use this for background
music and talk radio, nothing high volume. But the average ceiling
height is about 11 feet so I hope that the Abus amps will drive a pair
of Proficient Audio C610 (6-1/2 inch diameter) or equivalent at
sufficient volume to do the job. What do you think? Even outdoors I
plan to use the same setup with the speakers in the patio cover
ceiling.

Re the cabling, I am thinking of putting the 4 audio Abus hubs (Channel
Vision AB404) at three different locations. One location would have two
hubs and feed 8 rooms, the other two locations would have 1 hub and
feed 4 rooms each. That way, I minimize the cabling over what would be
required if all hubs were at the same location. The Channel Vision hubs
and the volume controls (Channel Vision AB114 keypads) all take 110
style punch down connections which I think would make for a pretty neat
setup.
