I would definitely look at a Yamaha MusicCast system.
Done.
Audiophile system with Yamaha core and wired main and wireless remotes
What would be your recommendation for an audiophile system with a Yamaha receiver or integrated Yamaha amp being the center piece (defining the sound), feeding a pair of wired towers and sub (mains) and two pairs of wireless remote speakers (simultaneously) in a large open loft space, sourcing TT, CD, Tape, tuner and streaming services.
I’m currently gobbling together a solution involving an R-2000, an RCA switch, a phono pre, a Wiim Pro+ and two Wiim Minis, two towers and a sub for the mains and four smaller powered speakers for the remotes/rears.
But I’m suspicious that there is a better, more simple, more user friendly way to achieve this, without sacrificing the signature higher-end Yamaha sound quality. Less footprint, less gadgets, less wires would be a plus.
How would you go about this. I’m interested to hear your thoughts for both approaches: building it from scratch or with some of the devices I already own (as in above).
Thank you!

I certainly considered Musicast. Unfortunately the selection of speakers compatible with Musicast WiFi seem still limited to Yamaha products. As much as I trust Yamaha gear, speakers don’t seem their strength, and my impression of Musicast compatible Yamaha speakers is that they seem mostly plastic and their specs/measurements not impressive. Maybe I can be convinced otherwise by someone who actually uses them? |
@raphaz Speakers are not their strength?? This NS2000A is one of their hifi speakers, about 8k/pair.
The NS5000 is about 15k pair.
Such speakers can go head to toe against any hifi speaker.
I use one of these little musicast speakers in my kitchen when i’m cooking up a storm...($250) You could also use it as a surround or wireless speaker with any of their multichannel receivers/processors/etc or in a multi-room setup. Depends on how much you wanna spend man.....
