Wow. That's all I can really say. There's no way I have time to do that. Drywall goes up on the ceiling Monday. I might hit up RadioShack. Songs seems like the easiest answer though.

I will look into those.

What is an apple zone controller? The only thing I could find called that controlled a sprinkler system.

Way way out of my league but someone finding this thread sometime will appreciate your reply.

I'm building a house and I want to put one or two speakers in each room with its own volume control all run with an amplifier and blue tooth receiver. I've looked into Sonos...

That takes a load off my mind. I was worried it would need to breath or something. thanks

This has probably already been covered but I couldn't search it properly. I have radiant in floor heating. I want to stain the floor and cover it in something that will prevent unwanted stains and stand up to some abuse. Is this going to be possible and what products do I use? thanks Scott
