Phase 1 complete

[Ajbarrister]

This project started with wanting to install distributed audio to the newly installed pool in the back yard and exploded from there. I have researched this project to death. I would like to thank you all for the time and energy in posting. Although I have recently joined this Forum, the information I gained was extremely helpful. With that said this is the first of a two phase installation. The second phase to occur at the end of the year, 2008, will add six more zones of audio, an additional HC-300, security system, 30 more dimmer/switches/keypads, several remote sensors, intercom, two outdoor security cameras and three more mini touch screens. With that said here is the partial equipment list for this install:
