I <em>shall</em> drag you and Nic around to our place at some point, so you can have a go! It's not cheap (our Chris has a Squeezebox and thinks I've wasted my money), but it's well worth it in my opinion. In theory, you could setup a Sonos system for around £250 by buying just a ZP80 and controlling it from a computer using the <em>Desktop Controller</em> software, but the hardware Controller is the best part of the system to be honest. BTW, sorry for all the comment moderation crap, you wouldn't believe how much comment spam I get for a blog that nobody reads. Yeah, it’s a really cool system.

I always wanted to do something like this using the Apple offering (the airport extreme/express/whatever kit), but it's so far down our list of priorities I might as well forget it - something new will be along long before I have the readies. But the ideal of having a central, wireless audio/video hub with 'receivers' in each main room.... hmmm. I'd love to have a system like that. I'll have to get myself invited around to your gaff sometime for a demo! :-) Hope you're all well, old hoss. Enjoyed your 2 pieces about Evie last week. Wow, really neat.
