I posted a question the other day that seemed to baffle several people and didn't get an answer - too complex by all accounts lol
Anyway, I spoke to Peter today and he told me what I posted might as well have been written in a different language, or words to that effect [
]
So now I've resolved the initial problem and here for bragging rights is my Home (and away) Audio set up
- All CD's ripped onto a 1TB Seagate USB Drive (just short of 7000 tracks)
- Home PC which is the base for our home network loaded with 'Serviio Pro' to create a Music Server
- Pioneer Network Receiver cable linked to the home network also coupled to a pair of Monitor Audio speakers
- Samsung Smart TV cable linked to the home network with sound bar and subwoofer
- Mobile phones linked to the home network via Wifi and BOSE box
- Two monitors linked to the main PC which provides access to the Servio console
- Network receiver linked to one of the monitors via a 2 port switch
The end result is we can select and play music anywhere in the house from our CD collection and wife's iTunes via the Serviio music server along with countless internet radio stations via Shoutcast and it sounds good
A bonus as well with Serviio Pro is that I have also set up the mobile phones and router so that we can get remote access to play any of our collection outside of the home.
Earlier I had my phone Bluetoothing music via the internet from our media server to my Hilux audio system whilst driving across Leeds and back [^]
So for bragging rights, what have you got for home audio ?
