Hi, Andy and how does your system work? Do you have a link?
How many speakers are you using?


I dont need high degree of phase stability , i need to control 50 very
cheap speakers. I dont really mind if they dont produce all the frequency
range.
If each speaker generate only one frequency , its ok.

I only need to be able to control them (the 50) from the computer,  i was
thinking, maybe not using sound?


cheers
