    Hi,

    I was wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction.

    In my house, we have iphones, ipad, galaxy tab & galaxy phones.

    Im looking for some kind of speaker system that allows me to play each of them wirelessly.

    I was in my mate's house the other day and he was playing his ipad tunes through air play and his bose syatem.

    Is there anything like this that I can use to play all my devices through it either via bluetooth or a wireless network.

    Cheers,

    E

    The common denominator here is Bluetooth. Look for a speaker system that supports Bluetooth audio streaming and you should be good.

    Perhaps something like this ?

    There are many other similar devices, some with outputs to feed a Hi-Fi system. Depends on what you want.

    Thanks Ken.

    Im looking for a good speaker system that i can put speakers in the living room, dining room & kitchen & turn on/off separate rooms as I require.
    It would also be nice to be able to use it with my tv too!

    Any decent options out there?

    your looking for a sonos system i'd imagine, or if your home is pre-wired your looking for a multi-room audio system like russound, Nuvo or similar.

    Check out new denon Avr3313. It's a 3 zone av amp. You can have a 5.1 set up in your living room.. Then 2 other zones consisting of 2 speakers per zone ( kitchen or study etc.)
    Each zone can have separate audio sent to it..
    AirPlay built in. And you can also use android streaming app.
    Not a cheap system about 1150 for the amp. Got mine on order...:D

    a +1 for Sonos from me. If you want to get some proper sound like you say, I would recommend getting a Sonos and some external stereo speakers. The higher quality option would be to combine Sonos Connect with an external amp and then external speakers but you could always get the Sonos Connect Amp and a pair of speakers. Even simpler again would be the Sonos Play 5 or Play 3 but these generally won't be quite as good a decent pair of external speakers.

    Sonos will allow you to control all of your music collection via the free Sonos app (Android and iOS versions available). This works over WiFi rather than Bluetooth which gives a much higher sound quality too although you will need a decent Wifi signal.
