Russound 4 Source 4 Zone Multiroom Audio System

Multiroom audio is home entertainment at its most sophisticated. Imagine having a home that allows you to listen to whatever you want, whenever you want literally at the flick of a switch. A quality multiroom system can deliver everything from one central source, simply and easily with the installation of the correct equipment that can deliver different sources simultaneously to different rooms. Rather than using different devices to deliver music to different rooms, a multiroom system uses a single source. If you choose a well designed system like the Russound range, then you can have one server storing the music for a whole house and available to all residents, from the teenager playing tunes in the bedroom to the parents listening to Radio 4 in the garden.

Main Benefits

The main benefits of a Russound multiroom system are convenience and quality, allowing you to enjoy music from various audio sources in any part of the home. According to the company: “typically, all of the equipment is neatly concealed in one location, out of sight. All wiring is hidden within the walls. What you see are elegant keypads and speakers, intelligently designed (http://www.russound.com/who-we-are.php) to blend with the décor.”
