Title: ethernet speakers system in a LAN
Post by: balubeto on 2013-11-21 18:56:50
Hi

I'm looking for an ethernet speakers system so you can hear the sounds produced by each application installed on the computers in a LAN.

Thanks

Bye

I don't think you'll fine Ethernet speakers, but you might be able to find a network audio interface that you can plug an audio system or powered speakers into.

Take a look at the Logitech Squeezbox (http://www.logitech.com/en-us/support/speakers-audio) product line.

I don't own anything like this, so I don't know if it does exactly what you want...  I'm not sure it you can find something that you can send audio from any computer, like you send output to a network printer, or if you'll have to select the computer at the receiving end like you'd select website or radio station.

Logitech don't make any Squeezebox related products any more as far as I'm aware, that link is the support page.

Squeezebox products connect to a a server app, maybe there a plugin for it to send sounds your PC produces but not sure.

It sounds like you almost want remote desktop and send the sound to a central machine?

Basically, I'm looking for a device that acts as a sound server for the computers on a LAN.

Thanks

You are almost understood.

Now, I would like to find a hardware device (already realized) that do this in order to hear also the sounds of the operating systems of any computer of a LAN.

Thanks
