Great DIY portable alternative to Sonos

I recently used an Arylic Up2Stream S10 along with an Arylic Up2Stream Amp 2.0 and an Up2Stream Amp 2.0 V3 to create a battery powered multi-room portable sound system for a wedding. I connected the S10 to a USB power bank and then to a battery powered boombox via a 3.5mm audio cable. The other 2 amps plugged into different USB power supplies and powered 2 sets of DIY speakers (Sprites and Overnight Sensations). I then connected the travel router to the power grid and connected all 3 Up2Stream devices to the travel router's WLAN. I was then able to link all 3 devices together using the 4Stream app so they all play in sync. I then streamed them all via Spotify Connect from my phone, which was also connected to the travel router's Wi-Fi network. I was able to walk around the entire wedding area (large outdoor patio + large flysheet 75ft away) and manage the playlist from my phone in my pocket. It was very convenient not to worry about my phone being in close proximity). Bluetooth - so I could move freely throughout the wedding area with my phone in my pocket and still use my phone to take photos/videos of the wedding and add songs to the playlist when people came up to me and asked for it. was really impressed how smoothly everything worked - the sound was perfectly in sync with no breaks. It was very easy to use the 4Stream app to adjust the volume/bass/treble of each system independently to perfectly match the wedding space. I am planning to repurpose all 3 Up2Stream devices in my house so I can enjoy multiroom audio in my house too.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Great price
