Hi All!

I am a complete beginner at all things audio so I'm hoping to get some help. We have recently built an outhouse with a covered patio. All I have done so far is run speaker cable from a single point in 'ROOM 1' to the following places:

ROOM 1: 2 ceiling speakers (front), 2 standing speakers (rear), subwoofer, center speaker
ROOM 2 (outside): 4 ceiling speakers
ROOM 3 (workshop): 2 speakers

I will have the following inputs:
3 optical (TV, PS4, spare)
3 AUX (aux point inside, aux point outside, spare)

I need to be able to control the volume in each 'room' and to be able to chose which room is playing the audio.

on a side note: There will be a TV inside and outside, and I want to be able to send the picture from inside to the outside TV whilst being able to watch on both TVs... any suggestions on how to do this?

Basically I want to know what I need to make this all happen!

Any help is much appreciated! :)

edit: To be able to have DAB/FM radio integrated into the system would also be great!

I really have nothing to offer you except this advice: This not a simple speaker situation. It's a full-blown home audio video/audio system with fairly sophisticated control/distribution issues.

You might be better off consulting with some local installers that are familiar with this type of situation.

But, on a lighter note, I gather you're not from the US. Over here, "outhouse" has a totally different meaning. ;)
