I recently moved to a new house that seems to have a whole-house audio system installed. In fact, it has all of it except for whatever I need to actually, you know, play music throughout the house.
I’ve attached some pictures of it. This was the first place I thought I would look, to see if I could get an idea of what I’m looking at, and if you have any recommendations, or recommendations for the type of expert I might want to seek out to help me get whatever I need hooked in so we can start using this in our home.
I’m looking for help identifying things as well as a direction to take it.
Power supply? Says not to plug in until all wires are connected.

Have you contacted the manufacturer?
- You should. For product support, please first contact the manufacturer. Reddit can’t do much about broken or faulty products.
Why does this rule even exist?
- In short, this is a large subreddit with a high volume. We want to help, but it’s important to keep things organized to keep the sub fun. Thanks for your understanding.
Paradigm wall speakers are pretty decent
If you want individual control and different music in different rooms at the same time, ditch the mess and get a stack of Wiim Amps.
If you want the same music in each room, get a beefy amp (Like a Crown) and a multi zone speaker selector from Monoprice.
Less risk of fire. 🔥
Fire?
That power supply looks sketchy
Thanks, I thought so, too. It’s all currently unplugged from power at the moment, so whenever I have someone out to help set up a new sound system, I am pretty sure that will be replaced.
Pretty sure that first pic is an autoformer, a magical piece of equipment that lets you distribute the sound to multiple speakers without having the impedance drop.
