I have a vision.

in each room, you have a control panel.

on this control panel, you can choose from 4 possible
feeds, power on or off, control the gain and/or volume,
adjust bass and treble as well as balance and fade among
the speakers in the room.

each room will have 2+ speakers installed flush with the
ceiling to deliver sound to the room.

each room would also have an RCA, mini or wired input jack.

each room would be assigned a channel throughout
the house.

master bedroom channel 1
office channel 2
kitchen channel 3
living room channel 4

each room would have sort of sound source
plugged into their input jack.

hopefully you see where I'm going here.

say I'm in the bedroom and I have my record player
on, but I want to listen to it in the kitchen, where I
don't have a record player. instead of blasting music
through the whole house, I could simply pipe it into
the wall in my bedroom (channel 1) and then from
the kitchen console, I can select my channel, adjust
my volume and my bass and cook away.

additionally, all the rooms will have their control
panel off so the music is isolated to the needed room.

but, if someone in the office decided they wanted to
listen to their ipod, or someone in the living room wanted
to watch a dvd in uber surround sound, then they can
simply select the appropriate channel on the wall panel
and get er done.

wtf?!

am I crazy?

how many different places would I have to go for the
components to do this?

GEOKILLS

sell me some speakaz, nigga!

I have no components yet.

I need to figure out where to go for this shit and how
hard it's going to be to wire up the wall consoles in
the room after the fact. I mean...it's easy to shove
the wife up into the crawl space to install some speakers
in the cieling, but wiring the house, installing wall panels
for control as well as in/output could mean a lot of
dry wall patching...

any suggestions for hardware...?
