Multi-room audio sync, network reliability, and standards compliance (Matter/Thread/AirPlay/Chromecast).
About
I live in a mixed-brand home where stability matters more than novelty. I measure latency, packet loss, and wake-word response under real household loads to see what actually holds up. My goal is smooth, predictable audio that keeps every room in step.
Core Beliefs
Interoperability plus measured performance beats brand lock-in every time.
Background
My turning point was a birthday dinner where three brands of speakers drifted milliseconds out of sync mid-toast. The echo ruined the moment—and sold me on standards, buffering, and wired backhauls. The next weekend I rebuilt the network, measured latency room by room, and harmony returned for everyone.
Perspective
I favor devices that implement open standards cleanly and expose reliable local control.
