Arylic Whole Home Audio - DIY System

I wanted to build a whole home audio system. I had a bunch of speaker wires that were already run to different ceiling speakers from the previous home owner. I wanted a modern system and found these amazing Arylic devices that could give me the flexibility I wanted.

For example, I wanted to play audio just in one room. I wanted to stream it direct from Spotify, or Bluetooth, or a direct wire from a PC. These Arylic boards let you do that. I also wanted to be able to join rooms together for perfectly synced audio (yes, perfectly synced) and then have the same benefits as Spotify, Bluetooth, hard wired, etc. Yup, you get that with these.

This video shows how I did it.

Wow. A lot of work. Really crazy organized.

Hey John, willing to do a layout/product specs for new home build?

[maxchillin]

Do you have a video or documentation explaining how you connected the power supplies? It looks like they are linked in pairs, but I wasn't able to get a clear look.

great project! i would love to add this functionality to my home theater speakers. do you use the BT antennas? or were you able to connect everything via LAN to the DLINK and then DLINK to your WAN and then control each room by the app via WAN? can multiple people be connected at the same time? so like your daughter can control her own room via the app and you can control other parts of the house via the app? just thinking if like my wife could control the living room at the same time i am controlling the garage or workshop speakers? thank you so much!

Do you have any RCA inputs vinyl or CD? Could you play to all speakers in the house if you did?

Beautiful job! Mechanical engineer here doing a major remodel project and leaning hard towards the Arylic amp solution for 6 or 7 rooms full home audio. I'm just in the process of ordering the first up2stream and power supply to test things out on the bench and get familiar. One question though... What's the 5V power supply for? I've watched your video a few times and can't sort that out. Again thank you for setting the direction here!

I am an arylic fan but have a 3D print question. How do you deal with the ABS off-gases? They are Toxic.

Don't sopose you would share your STL files?

[maciekurbanski]

I'm about to do similar setup, albeit little more rooms. What is your opinion on PSUs with fans ? I fear dust ingress, so I'm buying passive ones for amplifier (about to start testing Meanwell ERPF 400W 48V 8.3A).

What are the advantages of this system vs using a multi zone system like Soundavo WS66i?

[addismanley]

Nice Video!

I'm curious if you have any latency issues when you combine locations?

The money it must cost to run that setup you can probably just as easy hire a live orchestra to play at your house.
