What audio equipment do I need?

I am looking to setup some sort of audio equipment in my house to play my music.

It must:
Connect via Wifi or Ethernet.
Stream Music from home windows server.
Controlled via Android phone/tablet.
Decent sound quality.

Any suggestions?

    Well… if your TV have/can install the PLEX app… just get the PLEX media server for your PC/server and you're set. Though the SQ will depend on your TV…

    Or similarly, get something like the chromecast (or equivalent?) and plug that into an HDMI enabled amplifier and you can stream to the amp and thus get decent SQ.

    • Television is not in the same room I want to play music, so this isn't an option unfortunately.

      • Well there is also a PLEX app for your phone or any portable device really… that allows you to stream the music to.

        Perhaps give us some details on your current setup and usage?

  • Most midrange Home theatre amps/receivers will do that job perfectly.

    can be had for <$350

    Pair with your own speakers or buy some cheapies off gumtree.

  • Sonos. wireless lagless music streaming. You can control different songs at different volumes from your tablet, or you can play the same thing throughout. You can also get a soundbar and sub for it if need be.

    Best thing about it, is that although pretty expensive (for what it is), you can build your system one-by-one adding to it when you can afford to.
