A friend asked me if there is a way to do this for about $300 (lets assume 5 speakers).
The idea is that all speakers play the same music, but any person can turn down their local speaker.
I believe Sonos would do the job, but suspect it is well over budget.
Is BT strong enough to get signals to 5 offices? Wifi?
Is their a device that will connect to 5 speakers all at the same time?
For the purpose of background music, something like refurbished JBL Flips would provide speakers for around $30 each, so that would allow $150 for the "server".
I suspect the budget has some flexibility if needed, but this is a situation where the employees are trying to get the owner to spring for (and allow) music in their workplace and he said he would be willing to put $300 into it.
Any ideas?
