Hi! I want each room in my house equipped with wireless speakers, with their own remote, all run off my ipod. Is this possible? :confused:

In one room I would like to have my ipod on some kind of dock that transmits to wireless speakers all around the house.

I have a huge 5 bedroom house with upstairs and downstairs, so the transmission has to be strong.

There should be a remote in each room to adjust the volume for the speakers in that room.

Is there any system that can do this?
THX!

I've never tried this, but you may want to research solutions like Sonos: http://www.sonos.com/products/index.htm

I can't say if this is a good solution or not, have never heard her for myself. Let us know how it goes!

how much do you want to spend?

would you mind using your computer instead of your ipod?

the easiest solution i can come up with is 5 apple airport express' with 5 stereos of your choice. this would let you run as many or as few of the rooms as you want.

here's the link:
http://www.apple.com/airportexpress/features/airtunes.html

this would give you the flexibility of choosing the quality of the sound equipment. you could go either full blown receiver+speakers or just powered speakers.

where possible, use the optical output of the airport, the sound quality is better than the optical out.
