We've been using a Sonos system after repeatedly having drop outs from a hifi system hooked up to Apple TV.
The Sonos has been great for two reasons: anyone in our space can download the app to control it from their phones or laptops which means that the playlist is shared with everyone and gives anyone the ability to change it whenever they want. And secondly, the device lets you sign in to many compatible streaming music services (Rdio, Spotify, Pandora, Songza, etc) and this has given everyone in the space the ability to get access to multiple song libraries.
