jcbenten Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 No need to stay in that stuffy classical music for the stringed instruments: Involving my wife in music goes directly to simplicity of operation. Hence she goes straight to the tv...try as I might, I cannot train her to hit an extra button or two to listen to music. I have not been able get it simple enough. I think an Alexa box is next... Nice system you put together. Surprised that you were not able to find Powered/Active speakers to meet your needs.

jcbenten Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 My sister has an Alexa and over Thanksgiving last year we had a Battle of Alexa...music changing every 20 seconds because no one likes other's music. I think there is a College Humor video waiting to be made similar to the Siri spoof.
