Hey, I want to run a speaker system through 2 rooms of my house and have no idea where to start. I need something affordable (under $300) that can deliver some nice sounding tracks ranging from classic rock to electronic and dubstep. Having no idea where to start, I assume I'll need the stereo, an amp, 4 or more speakers (thinking 2 a room), and if theres room in the budget, maybe a sub for one room? Id love some suggestions or product lists that are compatible... Also and help on how to set this up..
Thanks so much!
 
Given that your budget is so low the only way I can see doing what you want is with used equipment. You would need a stereo receiver with connections for 2 pair of speakers (pretty common) and the speakers. Check your local thrift shop and Craigslist.

Well, the first order of setting up a home audio system would be to find ample space where you would actually place the setup. A cramped up room can interfere with audio flow. Rest of the setup can depend on the corresponding budget.
