You could buy a 2 channel stereo receiver from Sony or Best Buy's Insignia for $149/$129 each respectively and a SB3 or Duet Receiver for each room. Yes you don't need the tuner section but you get an amp with at least 75 watts of clean power (the Sony is rated 100 watts a 1khz) per channel, much more than the Boom and with more dynamic headroom than the Sonos. You can do this for about half the cost of the Sonos, maintain Squeezebox functionality, connect a set of real speakers in enclosures if you want for the living room (which will perform better than the ceiling speakers) and if warranted, listen to Analog local FM radio, which is better than the same station streamed due to data reduction mp3 streams via radio services.
