  1. mujtaba.khokhar - thanks for doing this. You are awesome. So given what you were able to do, do you imagine I could do the same using an HC-800 as my only controller? Thanks.
  2. mujtaba.khokhar that would be super helpful. Thanks!
  3. So if I have a family account on a streaming service like Tidal/Pandora, and I have an HC-800, can my wife, my son and I all select a different song to play in a different zone with the C4-16AMP3? Said another way, can I play a Tidal/Pandora song in the family room, while my wife plays another Tidal/Pandora song in the kitchen and my son plays a third Tidal/Pandora song in his bedroom (assuming the family room, kitchen and kid's room are all separate zones connected to the 16AMP3)? Sorry for all the questions. Just trying to understand how this all compares to if I went for a Sonos system. Thanks.
  4. I have a Tidal family account but it is premium and not HiFi so I don't have MQA.
  5. Thanks eggzlot. Yeah I don't have any C4 touchscreens and will not use the onscreen UI on TVs. I was playing on just using the OS3 C4 app on our phones. I might also get a NEEO remote for the family room (room with the 5.1 sound and AVR). Will use either SR250s or SR260s for other rooms. Given that, it sounds like I should be good with the HC-800, right? With a HC-800 and the C4-16AMP, how many different Tidal streams can I have going at the same time? On the 16AMP, can you control the volume for each of the 8 zones independently?
  6. Hi everyone, I moved into a home that previously had Control4 (HC800 + C4 8-Zone Matrix Amp) but the owner did not provide ANY information on the system so I need to now do a full system reassignment. Some initial questions for the this community: Background: Audio (9 zones of 2 speakers, 2 zones of 5.1 speakers), Video (2 TVs hooked up to separate 4K AppleTVs), 2 Nest thermostats (one upstairs, one downstairs), 5 smart yale locks, 2 myQs (one for gate, one for garage door), Rachio, Vista 20P (security panel). For audio, we exclusively use Tidal. For video, we exclusively use AppleTV Can a HC-800 support this system on OS3 (I don't care about the GUI on any of the TVs)? Do I need to/should I upgrade to an EA-5? For my 11 zones of audio, I will be using the C4 8-zone matrix amp (C4-16AMP3) and 2 Denon receivers (X3400H). I will hook up 8 zones to the C4 amp and then the two 5.1 zones to each receiver plus one additional 2 speaker zone to the second channel of one of the Denon receivers. Does that make sense/will that work? If so, in C4, can I play a song through Tidal and have it play in all 11 zones at the same time (without a lag or other issues)? How many separate Tidal streams can a HC-800 support? I believe the EA-5 can support 5, right? In terms of expansion in the next 12-24 months, I might add 6 motorized outdoor shades, ~30 zigbee C4 light switches, and a C4 intercom (C4-DS2SM). Does that change the decision on keeping the HC-800 versus paying to upgrade to an EA-5 Thanks so much! Really appreciate any and all advise/support guys.
