I bought a house that is already wired with speakers. I am a little unsure of how to set it up. The access point is show in this image:

What equipment will I need to:

-Play music from CD's and Itunes?

-Control Satellite?

-Stream Video?

I am willing to buy all new receivers/amplifiers/cables and whatever else to get it setup. I would like to do all of these things wirelessly if possible. I am just in need of some advice on how to do so.

    You will need a surround sound receiver, preferably with a 2nd zone amplifier for the other pair of speakers in the other room. It will need video streaming capabilities if that is something you really need or want. The satellite can be controlled through a remote so you will want to get a universal remote and have it professionally programmed so you can control all devices. built in music server would also be a good idea or plug in your computer and control it remotely with your iphone or itouch if you have one.

    Otherwise your looking at much more expensive whole home audio system, and surround receiver.

    Your best bet is to contact your independent local high end audio video store as they specialize in designing and installing these types of systems. Stay away from the chain stores as they have no clue what they are doing, and they don't have the equipment to work with such a system anyhow.
