Multiroom
Multiroom: its own music in every zone of the house
zones and music control across the house
Music plays in each room separately or across the whole house. Every zone has its own volume and source, controlled from a phone, a wall panel or by voice. All cables meet at one rack, so the system can grow without opening walls.
Status: the schemes and cabling are proven on a real project; equipment is selected for the budget and the client's choice.
01 · Who it is for
Multiroom: who it is for
- Villa and apartment owners who want music in the kitchen, living room, terrace and by the pool — separately or everywhere.
- Clients at the rough-finish stage: speaker cables must go in before ceilings are closed.
- Cafés, bars, hotels and showrooms: zones with separate volume and a shared schedule.
02 · What the system consists of
Speakers by zone
In-ceiling and in-wall; weatherproof for the terrace and pool
Streamers and amplifiers
One per zone or a multi-zone amplifier; the choice can wait until finishing
AV rack
Amplifiers, switch, Cat6 patch panel, UPS, ventilation
Cables
Speaker cable 2×2.5 mm² (long and outdoor runs 2×4 mm²), Cat6 to the rack and panels
Network
Stable Wi-Fi and wired network for streamers — together with Networks & Security
Control
App, wall panel, voice assistants; a shared remote with lighting is optional
03 · How it works
How it works
- 01Zones
A zone is a place where people actually listen: living room, kitchen, terrace, pool, bedrooms. Each zone has its own volume and source; zones can be grouped into one.
- 02Star to the rack
Each speaker has its own cable to the AV rack. Amplifiers and streamers sit in one place and can be replaced or added without opening walls.
- 03Sources
Streaming (AirPlay, Spotify Connect and others), TV, turntable, radio. Different zones can play different sources.
- 04Control
The amplifier app, a phone, a wall panel or voice. A shared panel with KAR Light is optional; every zone works without it.
04 · Three levels
Basic / Mid / Premium
- 4–6 independent zones
- Weatherproof terrace and pool
- Wall panels in key rooms
- Shared remote with KAR Light
- Zones across the house and grounds

07 · Timing
- What affects timingScope and number of zones, the finishing stage on site, supplier availability and how fast decisions are made.
- When we name the timingAfter a site visit and calculation: it is fixed in the estimate and work plan, stage by stage. We do not promise fixed timing in advance.
- What must be done on timeCables and boxes go in before walls and ceilings are closed. Equipment can be chosen and installed later.
08 · What we need from you
- Floor plans or photos of the rooms; the electrical and finishing design if available
- Access to the site for a visit and measurements
- A decision on the level (basic, mid, premium) after the calculation
- One contact person who approves decisions and changes
- The finishing schedule, so cables go in before walls are closed

10 · FAQ
FAQ
This page describes a solution and is not a public offer. The content and calculation are defined after a site visit.
How many zones do I need?
We count the places where you actually listen, not the number of rooms. We go through it together at the site visit.
Is internet required?
For streaming, yes. Local sources and the zones do not depend on our control panel.
I already have Sonos — will it fit?
Yes, it can stay and be built into the overall scheme. For important functions we keep the manufacturer's app.
Can I postpone choosing equipment?
Yes. What matters now is cables and boxes. Speakers and amplifiers can be chosen later.
How is Multiroom different from KAR Sound?
Multiroom is music by zones across the house. KAR Sound is sound quality: room acoustics, a cinema room, high-end built-in speakers. They are often done together.
