Multiple audio systems in different rooms; how to link them with streaming gear?
I want to go "all in" on hi-res streaming; hoping at the same time I can link multiple systems (like for a party). Media room has Oppo 203, Lexicon MC-12, and Bryston power amps. Family room has AV receiver and Logitech Squeezebox which plays files stored on office computer. Outdoor has Emotiva UMC-200 driving pro amps (Crown, Mackie). Bedrooms have vintage separates (Parasound, Adcom, Sumo, etc.) playing CDs on Oppo DV-970HD's. I'm considering Tidal or Qobuz on Roon (with Nucleus). Will the Oppo 203 and Squeezebox work as end nodes? What would be decent endnodes for the other systems?. Or do I just get six Bluesound Nodes? Max budget is ~$4k.
I recommend the DTS Play-Fi ecosystem and you could connect all of your systems and run it with an app. I also have a Bluesound node but prefer the Play-Fi system because you have so many brands to choose from. You could start with a couple of Martin Logan Unison preamp/streamer by connecting one to your lexicon MC-12 and anther one to a bedroom systems’ They include ARC room correction and are on sale at 50% off: https://www.martinlogan.com/en/category/wireless-systems Playfi website:
