That’s why I use a mesh network. Every node of the network is a WiFi repeater. The signal is as strong at the far end of the house as it is nearest the bridge, with 7 nodes (most of them speakers) throughout the house. Neighbors WiFi aren’t nearly strong enough to be an issue, and wouldn’t be even in an apartment building. Hard to argue with success...
I am curious about which mesh networking gear you use. I'm thinking about how to setup a system next summer when I move to a new location and think I will want wireless coverage in a number of locations. I've seen recommendations for Linksys Velop and Netgear Orbi. Do you think it would reach into a detached metal shop building about 25-30 feet from the house? I may have to buy a network cable to the shop.
Thanks,
John

Sony HAP-Z1ES: 1TB of internal storage (expandable), built in Spotify, capable of hi-rez files, and wired directly into your pre using RCA or balanced cables.
It won’t do multiple rooms and I don’t know if there’s a hard cap on 20k titles or not. If I want music in another room I use an Apple TV, which is good enough for what I’m using in my non-primary system. If 20k individual song titles is somehow not enough I’d start culling my music library. My wife and I have loaded over 4K CDs in full or partial and we still have plenty of room.
the discs aren’t loaded directly to the Sony; they’re loaded on an external hard drive through my Mac mini then wirelessly transferred to the Sony. This creates a back up and the data is available through the home network anywhere I have a system with an Airport or Apple TV.
Sony has developed a remote app for this unit to use on a tablet. It controls song selection, playlists, and Spotify. As far as software on the mini I just use iTunes; it’s good enough for the secondary system and anywhere else I’m not doing critical listening. I bought one of the better options a couple of years ago...might’ve been Audiovarna...but since owning the Sony I never used it and didn’t reinstall.
