If you’re feeling adventurous and want to integrate it with ST, I used this thread.

> Sounds interesting. Seeing that the IP2SL uses in part UDP communications, it would be nice if ST fixed their UDP communications first. They introduced a bug in the platform last year which is causing responses from devices to be stripped out so it’s broken communications with many devices (at last count we have developed Apps/DTH’s for Cameras, Audio Receivers, Wifi locks and various other UPnP devices all of which we can’t finish or release because of this platform bug). Interestingly, there is a patch for it but for some reason ST can’t seem to prioritize deploying it. Frustrating!! Maybe if enough folks push for it they may prioritize fixing it (basic communications).

Just do a search on here for Monoprice 6 zone and you’ll get a few search results.

If you have more than 6 zones you can link two of the amps together. This amp comes with wired control panels via cat5 cable. Volume, source, etc. I didn’t wire them up since I got the RPi integration working.

Good luck.
