We've got a Sonos Connect / Connect Amp setup.

1) Sonos Connect directly connected to our stereo, which lets us play Sonos through our Family Room stereo.
2) Sonos Connect Amp connected to Klipsch CDT-3650 in-ceiling speakers in our master bathroom.
3) Sonos Connect Amp connected to Bose 251 outdoor speakers in our back yard.

We can enable music through any / all of the speakers at any time. They can be playing either the same or different music simultaneously. All Sonos devices can be activated / managed through their app, so you can turn on/off, change station, and configure everything quite handily.

We have a wake up alarm in the master bathroom to turn on music in the morning. We have SirisXM, itunes, Pandora, and Spotify all configured within Sonos, so you can play music from any source any time you want.

We also happen to have a couple iPad minis on walls around the house for home automation. They're not necessary for us, but important for guests at the house when we're not around.

Really love this setup. Sonos Amps are not cheap, but what a great ecosphere.
