Multi-room audio system installed and configured throughout your home. All speakers connected, rooms grouped, streaming services set up - play music everywhere from your phone, perfectly synchronized.
### Music Should Follow You
Playing music in the kitchen, but can't hear it in the garden. Portable Bluetooth speaker that **constantly needs charging** and only works in one room. Or different speakers with different apps and nothing syncs properly. You want music throughout the house without the hassle.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** Multi-room audio isn't just for massive houses. Even a 2-bed flat benefits - kitchen, living room, bathroom all playing the same music as you move around makes a huge difference.

What to Expect
### Step 1: Planning & Positioning I work out where each speaker should go for best sound and coverage. Near power sockets, not hidden in cupboards, positioned for good audio. Living room might get a stereo pair, kitchen a single speaker, bedroom another. Depends on your rooms and listening habits. ### Step 2: Network Connection Each speaker gets connected to your WiFi network. This is where DIY often fails - network issues, wrong frequency (2.4GHz vs 5GHz), speakers won't pair. I get them all online and communicating properly. ### Step 3: Configuration Speakers get named by room (Kitchen, Living Room, Bedroom) not Speaker_2847. Rooms grouped logically - "Downstairs" for kitchen and living room together, "Whole House" for everything. Makes control much easier. ### Step 4: Services & Demo Your streaming services get configured - Spotify, Apple Music, radio stations, whatever you use. Then I show you how to actually use it - play music, choose rooms, adjust volume, group/ungroup speakers. You practice while I'm there.

Good to Know
> 🎶 **Existing HiFi?** Some multi-room systems can integrate with traditional HiFi equipment using line-in connections. Keeps your good speakers but adds multi-room capability. Worth considering if you've got decent kit already. **Expanding later?** Start with 2-3 speakers in main rooms, add more over time. The system's already set up, adding new speakers is quick. Better to get a few working properly than buy loads and never configure them. **Old Exeter houses with thick walls?** Multi-room speakers need WiFi coverage in every room. If your WiFi's patchy, might need to sort that first. Mesh WiFi systems work brilliantly in period properties - we can do both jobs together if needed.
Frequently Asked Questions about Multi room audio setup in Ottery St Mary
What is multi-room audio setup?
It's installing and configuring wireless speakers throughout your house (Sonos, Bose, or similar systems) so you can play music in multiple rooms at once, all perfectly synchronized. I connect each speaker to your WiFi, set up grouping so you can play the same song everywhere or different music in different rooms, configure your streaming services, and show you how to control it all from your phone.
Which multi-room system do you recommend?
Depends on budget and needs. Sonos is the gold standard - expensive but excellent. Bose SoundTouch is good mid-range. Amazon Echo speakers work for budget multi-room but sound quality's limited. If you've already bought a system, I'll set it up properly. If not, I can advise based on your house and budget.
Do the speakers need wiring or are they wireless?
They need mains power but no speaker wires. Each speaker plugs into a normal socket and connects to your WiFi. The 'wireless' bit is the music signal, not the power. I'll help position them near outlets and run the power cables neatly.
Can you set up Spotify and other streaming services?
Yes - that's part of setup. Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, BBC Sounds, radio stations - whatever you use gets configured so you can access it through the system. You'll need login details for subscription services.
How long does setup take?
Depends on number of rooms. 2-3 speakers takes about 2 hours - unbox, position, connect to network, configure, test. 5-6 speakers or whole-house systems take 3-4 hours. I'll estimate based on what you're installing.
