I've been out of the high quality audio loop for over a decade. Now that I'm more set in my career, I thought it's time to build a high quality wireless audio system. The problem is that I don't know where to start. Here is what I'm trying to achieve:
I'm building a very high end Windows computer right now for my work that also contains all of my classical and other music, most of which are lossless. I would like to use my PC as the central hub to play music both in the office and in other rooms wirelessly. But just as importantly, I want to achieve high quality sound. I believe very high quality monitors could be obtained for about $1000, at least when I looked at this some years ago. I don't have a good idea about DACs whether it's the speakers or the DACs that need to be wireless.

Additional goals:
- I'd like to be able to control which monitors are on remotely (for example, turn on music in living room but off in the office) and maybe have a timer to turn them off.
- As a plus, it would also be nice to be able to play different music in different rooms, as needed.
- Some sort of an interface where other users could choose music to play in a given room would also be great, without having to log into the computer to do that (I do have a Synology server as well, if that matters, and my music is hosted there)
- Would also be very efficient if I could utilize the speakers in the living room to play the sounds from TV as well, when needed.
