Planning guide

Whole-Home Audio Guide

A considered audio plan gives each space the right level of independence.

Choose rooms and zones

Decide where one shared playlist is useful and where separate listening is better. Kitchens, bedrooms, entertaining spaces, and outdoor areas may need different coverage and controls.

Before you decide

Speaker appearance, amplification, wiring, source support, and practical volume should be discussed together. Document how rooms are grouped so the system remains easy to use.

Plan what can play at the same time

Describe a normal evening: music in the kitchen, television in the family room, and a different playlist outside. Ask whether the proposed sources and zones support that combination. Also decide which areas should group together for entertaining. This prevents a system that has speakers everywhere but cannot deliver the independent listening your household expects.

Match the controls to the space

A guest should be able to change patio volume without searching through unfamiliar rooms. Discuss local controls, app access, and the difference between turning off one zone and the whole house. Speaker placement should provide useful coverage at comfortable levels. Demonstrate source selection, grouping, and volume during handover, and record the room names in plain language.
