multiroom

Across multiple chambers

Multiroom describes audio or video systems designed to distribute content throughout multiple rooms of a building from a single source.

A multiroom setup lets you play music in the kitchen while someone else watches TV in the living room, or synchronize the same audio across the entire house.

We installed a multiroom speaker system so we can control music from any room.

The term appears most often in home entertainment and smart home contexts.
