Could someone point me to a fairly cheap but decent component that will play a random shuffle of songs on a CD filled with MP3s? I've been looking at info on various CD and DVD players that have MP3 playback, but haven't found any that say they will shuffle the songs on a disc.

Have you considered just mounting a sound bar under the TV outside?

The UE Roll 2 is very highly regarded for that role.

If he’s a pro drummer I’d be more inclined to assume he’s half deaf  I assume this is the receiver at Best Buy: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/sony-2-0-ch-stereo-receiver-with-bluetooth-black/6187501.p?skuId=6187501

I’m no expert on “connected” receivers but That Denon is a BT receiver, it should show up on your Android device just like a wireless speaker or wireless headphones, in any audio app. It’s got six HDMI ports, so if you decide Chromecast is the way to go, you can use a regular Chromecast if that’s a better fit (rather than a Chromecast Audio). Those speakers do not appear to have batteries. They come with power cables and an AC adapter, and Denon offers a $100 “go pack” which is a rechargeable battery pack that the speaker sits on.

Sounds like the bigger problem is the “split off” thing.

(Big) if the laptop is mostly stationary and (another big if) your TV watching positions allow you to plug your headphones into your respective computers and You’re ok with having your computers on to listen to the TV you could probably just split the TV audio out and connect that to the line in of each computer, then switch the source on your PCs as required.

I got a Megaboom and it seems fine. My only outdoor use is near a wall that will reflect sound, not out in a yard or field. Obviously it’s not home theater quality but it’s pleasant sounding music. If you find them on slight discount you could get two for $300 (or get the previous model Megaboom 2s for $100 each), and put them in stereo mode.

Boom is kind of large for a shower, though, isn’t it? I know people gushed over the Roll and Roll 2 for showers. E: well the boom looks to be about the size of a bottle of shampoo.

Do either Denon or Yamaha receivers have a mode where, in a 5.1 setup, you can easily switch to a 2-channel (or 2.1) mode where the sound only goes to the rear speakers?

Another 5.1 rear speaker question — should I even bother considering putting the rears in the ceiling if it's 12’6” high? The only other practical option would seem to be wireless.

I’m thinking of getting a Denon AVR-S750H (or maybe 950H) receiver, and was wondering if anyone could answer these two questions regarding the receiver and HEOS speakers. 1) could I set up a 5.1 system with wired left, center, and right speakers and use HEOS speakers for the surrounds? I would think so, but the Q&A on Denon's site makes it unclear. 2) if so, could I also “connect” two more HEOS speakers as 6 and 7, set them to Zone 2, and have them play a separate audio source?

Looking at the Denon model linked, and the a Yamaha I recently bought, I have a question: is it no longer usual for receivers to have switched/unswitched power outlets on the back panel?

Residency Evil posted:Is the Denon AVR-S750H a solid choice for a receiver? Not looking for anything too complicated: mainly use as an HDMI switch, something that will pair well with a 4k OLED, and support for 5.1 speakers (eventually). It's on sale at costco for $340. Any reason to pay more for the Yamaha RX-V685?

Hey if anyone’s interested in portable stuff I noticed Best Buy Has UE Megaboom 3s for sale for $119 and they’ll give you a free (white) charging pad.

Try setting your audio to 2.1 mode?
