Hello,
I want to install recessed speakers in each of the 3 upstairs bathrooms with a panel just outside the door to allow me to adjust the volume, I like the look of this....

What I was planning on doing is running a line level output from the amp in my home cinema and looping through each of those panels which would give me independent volume contol. However it wouldn't let me change the source... obviously doing it this way would mean having to go downstairs and changing the source on my AV reciever.
Is there a system availble with wall panels like the one above, but that has the extra feature of remote switching of the source? What I have in my head is a system that has a remote box that could sit in my AV rack, so there would be a looped input from all my sources so for example my CD player would tee off, 1 output would go into my av reciever, the other into this box...Then I can independently contol the audio level and source from the remote panels?..I understand you wouldn't be able to change CD track or radio station...thats no nessairy, it would just be nice to select what device you hear.
Is there something off the shelf that will do this? I'm not looking to spend loads, I've spent many thousands on our HT so the multiroom AV has to be on a budget - it's my dads house, which I still live in and although he said he'd like the system in place, he doesn't want to buy it and I will be moving out within a few years so I want to leave him with a good system in place but don't want to spend thousands...I'll be doing that in the new place
PS:- at the moment there is a 10core screaned cable to every room, but these can be pulled up through conduit and changed if thats no good.
Any suggestions greatfully recieved,
Thank You.
