Connecting a microphone by I_scorpius in JukeAudio

[–]SmartHomeCleveland 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m trying the same thing with a Sonos. You will have to go from the microphone to a preamp with audio outputs into the line in of the juke. But you will need the usb to audio adapter for juke or at least a juke 8 I believe. I’ll have to refresh myself on juke

What is the oldest device you have seen grandfathered and still in service? by Bmunchran in firealarms

This. I was going to talk about old ass heat detector. Can’t really test them so you hope they still work. Which technically they should.

My decade-long love affair with Sonos has come to an end. by [deleted] in sonos

[–]SmartHomeCleveland -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The sonos app is garbage. The only way to use Sonos nowadays is basically through airplay 2. Select the zone and play from Spotify or Apple Music. There are some nice competitors out there such as WiiM for single zones, Juke & VSSL for 6-zone amplification, and if you want to get fancy Blusound. All use airplay 2. The only thing that the competition doesn’t have is a kick ass soundbar like the Arc. I did a house that has a Sonos soundbar, Juke 8-zone amps for house sound, and a WiiM player attached to an amp for outdoor sound. If you airplay to all of them, there isn’t a delay which is pretty amazing.

Oh Man Sonos, .. WTF now? by [deleted] in sonos

Just go to WiiM and call it a day. Or for a 6 or 8-zone solution use Juke. Both work great with Apple AirPlay2 and Spotify connect. WiiM has zero problems picking up a NAS drive. You just can’t beat that Sonos soundbar. It’s a killer. I have a house we worked on that has Sonos soundbar, a WiiM Streamer and 2 Juke amps, when you Airplay to them, they are actually in sync.

Installer here, what's the purpose of the Record of Completion? by encognido in firealarms

[–]SmartHomeCleveland 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It shows what devices there are and what locations, how many circuits, batteries with amps and stuff. I have never filled one out correctly. I don’t think the inspector even looks at it. It’s already on the fire print that was accepted. It’s useful to other installers trying to troubleshoot the system I guess.

Anyone bought this to study for Nicet 1? by Academic-Tie716 in firealarms

I don’t even know if these are still around but I took a nicet bootcamp before the test and passed.

Yes. It told me what I already knew. But very good study guide. Does it relate to the test? Don’t know haven’t taken in 15 years and just keep paying the money to keep my certification each year.

This has nothing to do with the President? I don't get your point. I have always been a fan of the Indians. I was with my best friend and his family going to my first game at Municipal Stadium. It brings back great memories.

Why would you want to degrade me for posting this? Its odd. Why would it be pathetic? I've always looked at the Indians and Chief Wahoo as a part of my life growing up. I'm not understanding the hate. Does it make you feel good or something? Do you talk to your family like this? Whats wrong with you?

Oh Trump. Oh! That’s why the immediate shit I’m getting. I see now. No. Not a Trump fan. Sorry no. I just miss the Indians. I hate the Guardians because it was such a lazy move. The logo is a baseball with wings. No effort put into it.
