Need input regarding three considered networked audio systems for my house. They are the Netstreams Musica; SpeakerCraft MZC-66; and Niles ICS. Any input would be appreciated; this is very difficult to evaluate pros/cons/cost of each.

I place a lot of vaule on the look of the keypads, its proably my first consideration to be honest. Between the three you mention there is no comparison, the MZC excells. Ease of set up, i have not worked specifically with Musica, but i believe it is an A-Bus system. My experience with A-Bus is it is easy to setup, not to flexiable and limited sound quality. The niles can do it all, but it is hard to work with sometimes and tends to be expensive by the time you get everything you need. My money is on the MZC's, they are very easy to set up and very flexiable. I programmed my first one in about 1.5 Hours, fairly customized for the client. The MODE is really cool but gets costly. Hope this helps
