I have not used this amp but have been doing some research for a similar
application. I was suggesting get additional dots and plug them
directly into the multi-room amplifier with the name of the zone or
room. You would then use the dots in the rooms to tell Alexa to play
the music in each room
I found a manual for the amp and I originally thought the wall plate was
going to give me a headphone port to plug in my Alexas too. But thats
not the case. So after further reading what your saying is get
additional dots and put them right next to the amp and then use the
existing Alexas to
Thats a great idea. Do you have personal experience with this amp?
The only downside I see to it is where to place the wall jack with the
input. I have the cat 5 ran to a box down low which is good for the echo
out but the rest of the features wont be very useful.
Could use the Alexa volum

Since all of your speakers are wired to a central closet I would get a
multizone amplifier like this one:

provide inputs. I would then get an echo dot for each room to act as a
source and name it for the room you want music t

But it does. Everything can be controlled by a fairly well-doc
What about a link to the album's home page on line, or if that does not
exist to sales page of amazon. That should cover most albums.
Then if the link is available in the skin (eg nokia 770) you can browse
everything while listening.
Ideally the link is stored as tag in freedb or somewhere simil
Very nice. I wish there were such plugins for other software. I'll
look some more at JRMC.

It does - I use J River's Media Center to manage all sorts of

Inspired by the success of my efforts to do away with CDs in my life, I
want to move on to digitizing (or discarding)as much of my paper docs

Personally I went for the Jazz Loft sleeves, store both inserts and CD
in about 25% of the thickness of a CD case.

The CDs should be ones last resort for data loss. And that would be when
the computer is fried and your archived copies are also destroyed. Who
has the time to do all that converting over again when one can archive
the conversions to DL DVD in no time at all. Once the current library
is backed up,
I loaded all my CD's on a hard drive and got rid of the jewel cases and

If you've ripped them you could also seal the box with some silicone
caulk for extra waterproofing.
I'm also pretty sure if you do a search for waterproof cases you'll
be able to turn up some options.

I *strongly* recommend that you don't count on your physical CDs as
insurance against data loss. You've probably spent many hours ripping
and tagging your CDs, and at the current price of hard drive
Thanks for the suggestions -- I am not really looking for furniture, so
boxing them up is what makes most sense to me. I am concerned about
water damage though, so cardboard wouldn't necessarily work for me (and

street parking!)
