Multi room system
Discussion
Hi all,
I'm undecided on either Bose or Sonos for the house. My initial plan was to get a couple of the Bose https://m.bose.co.uk/GB/en/home-and-personal-audio... or the sonos equivalent.
BUT!
What about these packages (e.g. http://www.electrosupplies.co.uk/p6435/4-Pairs-of-... where you can get in roof speakers and an amp for around the price of 2 of the sonos or Bose.
Does anyone have experience of them? Long story short nearly finished a renovation and I have no carpets down so could look to do an installation quite easily.
Cheers.

Sonos.
If looking at Bose check the following (assuming you require the functionality) :-
- Can they both be playing from different source at the same time. e.g. Ipad in one room and streamer in another
- can both be controlled from multiple controllers e.g. kids phpone in one room your phone in another
- Bose didn't support NAS drives when I looked into them - they may now
- if streaming, ensure Bose supports the streamer of choice
There are other alternatives these days but none as flexible as Sonos that I am aware of. However I believe some of the alternatives are better sounding (if you can appreciate that).
