Petra Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 I suspect this might not be a popular question but I think Control4 system might be overkill for my simple needs of streaming audio (eg Spotify, TV) to six wires zones in my house. No automation. Looking for alternative DIY system recommendations like Sonos instead of upgrading my old 250 controller. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks How are you amplifying them.I think the problem you run into is the alternatives all need new amplification so your budget explodes there. A eBay EA3 and a dealer to migrate the project, well backup and install on new device will be the most affordable solution. Echo Amps x 6 could also work but are $299 each Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
therockhr Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 It’s not diy but Russound would probably fill your needs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary Leeds UK Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 We use Sonos in 4 rooms (2 are connected to tv) works great with c4 ~ Alexa allows you to choice music ~ newer kit plays control4 anocements faster then T3 touchscreens Control4 does not allow you to search (hence Alexa or google for that) but it does show favourites and plain list which you can program off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
