First off id like to say hi to everyone and thanks in advance for whatever help you can offer. Heres my issue. Im looking into setting up multiple rooms for playing only music. Nothing too technical with perfect placement and whatnot, but more of a parts list of what ill need. The plan is to throw 4 speakers in my unfinished basement (where i lift) and 2 in the bathroom. The goal is to have all the speakers wired into (an amp? a receiver?) then just run a cord from said (amp?) to the laptops audio out. id prefer a small amp, just something simple that i can plug in the wall and hit an on/off switch, but the research ive been doing seems that thats not the way to go. receivers on the other hand are quite large, unsightly, and i would need to dedicate quite a bit of space for it to sit. i know you can spend thousands on audio equipment, but id prefer to keep the cost down as much as possible. Remember, i wont be blasting music to window flexing levels here.
