What makes this system "dated"? It uses IP based controllers to control a centralized computer based audio source. It's a mix of conventional whole-house audio, which does whole-house a _lot_ better than buying a pile of Squeezeboxes and amplifiers for every room and getting often poorly synched playback, and computer based audio sources.
