How You Will Use It
How you will put your music and audio to use will affect how and where your speakers and controls are installed. Many situations can be greatly enhanced with the right soundtrack. Whether you are hosting a party, a family dinner, or just relaxing at home, you can choose the perfect music to set the atmosphere. If you are hosting a gathering, create a comfortable atmosphere with relaxing jazz music to encourage guests to mingle. Or maybe you need a more upbeat dance playlist to get the party started.
Switching between songs is as easy as opening your media library on your phone or tablet, scrolling through your favorite streaming service, and picking the best playlist with just a simple tap. And distributed audio isn’t limited to just music. Listen to an audiobook, play the most recent episode of your favorite podcast, or use white noise to help you sleep—all from the same interface!
What Rooms You Will Use the System In
Distributed audio can connect to every room in your home, allowing you to listen to music anywhere. Choose from wireless or wired speaker options (or a combination) from manufacturers like Sonos, TruAudio, and Focal, and even choose in-ceiling and in-wall models that blend in seamlessly with your interior décor in areas where speakers would look out of place. Expand your audio solutions beyond your living room, bedroom, media room, and kitchen. Blast a playlist in your laundry room, garage, or even your bathrooms!
Plus, your speakers don’t have to be confined indoors. Play songs outside on your patio or by the pool with an outdoor speaker system that integrates seamlessly with your indoor system. Specify settings for each room, like playing jazz in the living room for your spouse to relax to while your kids enjoy an upbeat playlist by the pool.
How You Will Control It
There is little point to a distributed audio system that is difficult to control. Luckily, we work with leading home automation manufacturers like Control4 to simplify the management of all your home's technology from a single centralized interface. Using your mobile device, a sleek touch panel, or stylish wall keypads, you can adjust the volume, change playlists, and more with just a few taps.
