I'll shortly be moving to a new house which has multiple wired ceiling speakers across 7 rooms wired to a Cambridge CXA60 amp in one room with a few other boxes including a Brennon JB7 (picture attached). CD player and ipod dock in cupboard by the amp and other boxes. All must be 5/6 years old now, current owners installed amp but never use and don't understand it (which clearly I don't either!).
Have been asked if I want to offer for the amp, however I know that if I can't control music from my phone to play in any room, from whichever room I'm in, I'll never use it (currently I have a couple of Sonos speakers I'm bringing with me from my small flat).
Would love to get the ceiling speakers working but only if I can do through phone from anywhere in house. Question - should I buy the amp (+how much should I offer for it) and is there a way I can control from my phone... or should I decline their offer and start from scratch (and is there a set-up that's possible)?
Complete noob in this btw, I'm impressed I can work a Sonos system - technical language will not be understood (as you can no doubt tell from my question)!
