Hi,

Newbie here. We wired multiple rooms with speakers in our new home. I have an older Yamaha RX-V673 for the living room 5.1 and a Denon AVR-X3700h for our 5.2.4 theatre room.

Looking for small amps that I can use for the other rooms:
- outdoor patio, 2 pairs of C34E speakers that will always play the same music
- kitchen, pair of C34E - next to living room, but RX-V673 won't allow airplay in zone 2 separate from zone 1
- master bed, pair of C34E
- master bath, single Klipsch speaker

Will be using iphones / Airplay 2 to play apple music / YouTube in these other areas.

I ran across the WiiM Mini AirPlay2 which seems like a good option to provide Airplay 2 if I can't find an integrated solution. Multi-zone solutions seem to be much more expensive than individual.

Would love some ideas - would like to keep to approx $120 per area if possible.

Many thanks in advance, I'm new to all this!
