I have a Sonos player in each zone or room I want music in. In the master bath it's a small amplified unit that goes to my ceiling speakers. Same goes for the master bedroom. The unit is about 6"x6"x3" and it only has a volume on the front of it and a mute button. I can play whatever Sonos has access too at whatever volume I want in each room. I also have a non amplidied player hooked up in the garage to an old receiver that has 4 wall speakers connected to it. Then in the kitchen I've got another one hooked up to my main 7.1 receiver system which is a 3 zone receiver that allows me to run the outside speakers on the back patio through my 12 channel amp as the third zone, run kitchen ceiling speakers with the back 2 channels on my 7.1 receiver as a second zone and then finally run the living room in 5.1. I can add as many as I want in the future. The den is next. It all runs on the wifi network. And I can control it from any computer, iPad, or smart phone we have.
It's pretty cool.
Probably similar to apple AirPlay but it includes the hardware to do it.
