Zeeb, congratulations and welcome to the active speaker club...
Thank you, I'm really glad I went the active speaker route. Someone on stereonet encouraged me to look at the pros and cons vs a passive speaker system.
The PW Link looks like a nice way to do a multi-room system (which stays in sync I assume), especially with the room correction feature, but I am set now for the time being.
My living room is the PC+Soncoz DAC -(balanced)-> Genelecs. And the second room (kitchen/dining) just runs by wire (simultaneously) off the unbalanced extra analogue outs of the Soncoz DAC.
This wire just goes to the AUX in of a pair of Soundcore Motion Plus portable speakers (by a breakout stereo to L and R adapter). I will also put a budget line-level gain booster (TEC aka TCC TC-780LC) on this line to bring the unbalanced volume up to match the balanced (adds up to 20dB) for running both rooms together.
So the second room is a compromise because I wanted a small portable speaker there that I could also take with me away from home. They are primarily bluetooth speakers, so the AUX in probably isn't as good, but so far they sound adequate for the second room. I might get better active speakers for this room down the track, especially if charging the portables regularly gets annoying. (I seem to have to do this about every 3 days and I often only use one of the pair.)
