Set Up a Low-Tech, Whole-House Speaker System Through Existing Phone Lines

Set Up a Low-Tech, Whole-House Speaker System Through Existing Phone Lines.

This is a post that ran on Lifehacker, a few years ago to my immense satisfaction. The system works great. I added an Airport Express device that makes it all “wireless”, ie without having to physically connect the computer. Marion very correctly thinks that word “wireless” is a misnomer. Looking at a wireless speaker that needed to be plugged in, and referring to system as a whole, she said, “What do you mean wireless? Theres wires everywhere!” And so there are.

I rarely read comments, and don’t have them yet for this site, my theory being anyone who might see this has my cell number, but I that I noticed this about the comments on Lifehacker: the more technically informed the commenter, the less the setup, which is brain-dead simple in its operation, was understood. My favorite comment, “Get this guy a beer!!”
