In many cases, the only cables that need to be run are speaker cables that connect your amplifiers to your ceiling speakers. Summaryįor large homes, modern whole-house audio systems should include in-ceiling speakers wherever possible, inexpensive but sophisticated audio streamers (including at least one or two with voice user interfaces (VUI) such as Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant), and an app for controlling all audio zones.Īdditional features are icing on the cake- such as control from wall-mounted keypads and touchscreens, the ability to integrate audio sources located throughout the home (not just in one central location), and the ability to stealthily hide your equipment wherever possible. A reliable and robust WiFi network is imperative for the smooth operation of any WHA system and is even more important should you choose a wireless or hybrid wireless solution, both of which are taxing on bandwidth. Any good WHA system, whether wired or wireless, should provide a way to control the system wirelessly via an app. I’d like to preface by stating that “wired versus wireless” refers to the way in which a system is installed, not the way it is controlled.
I end with a summary of HTD’s current wired and hybrid wireless solutions. For new home construction, I clarify what types of cable (if any) should be run before the walls and attic space get closed in.

The objective of this white paper is to provide enough information about Whole-House Audio (WHA) so that you can make an informed decision about how best to set up your home for high quality listening and control of music, TV audio, and other audio sources.
