kdf, Sorry I'm not sure what you are getting at, your posted URL seems to be missing a domain.
Bob, I don't think you understand. Wires are not my problem, but if it is a diagram you want, then a diagram you shall get. whatIhaveNow.jpg is, well... what I have now. Well, almost. I only drew 2 zones here (you can extrapolate) and I no longer use a CD changer, I use a music server, and how I control it is not worth getting into. The wires connecting the IR receivers to the Xantech connecting block are indeed CAT5. It doesn't have to be as they only use 3 conductors, but I got alot of CAT5 laying around. withSqueezebox.jpg is what I am probably going to do when I get my SBs. The SB to Xantech circuit are the things in the URL of my post that started this thread. Nevermind that line level or digital audio has to run all the way back to the receivers in the basement, that's a whole other ball of wax that is best left to the other thread I have running. So what does this buy me over what I have now, IR wise. 1) The ability to control the receiver with commands sent to the SB, like turning the receivers on when the SB goes on. 2) I'm going to mount my SBs on the wall, or at least I think I am. With what I have pictured here I am using the IR receiver of the SB essentially as the IR receiver of the Xantech system. This means only one receiver mounted to (and in) the wall, not two. 3) If my SB to Xantech circuit is under $50, then it is a cheaper receiver than the $50 Xantech receivers. Forget what I said about the Sonos and "head" and "body" stuff here. That topic is part of another thread and encompasses more than IR which I would rather focus on in this thread. +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Filename: withSqueezebox.jpg | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1160| +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ -- rock ------------------------------------------------------------------------ rock's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4845 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=22694 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
