I appreciate your help. And you are right… I have no experience with Sonos. To be honest, I am having trouble reading through the hype on their website to get a picture of how this would work given my constraints:
- Physical volume controls that are immediate… not an app… and a wall tablet would have to be on all of the time
- Able to play Spotify, Pandora, and my library (which all 45,000 tracks I have now uploaded to Google Play)
- Able to play on any combination of speaker sets at any time… for example the following combinations:
** Living room, kitchen, and family room
** outside pool and decks
** Master bed and master bath
** Living room, kitchen, and dining room, outside pool and decks
** All speakers in the house
Everything I read about the sonos and all of its fans say it can do this. And I kind of believe them. But to find out if this is true, I have to understand their website and possibly make an investment to determine for myself. Scary.
