It is not practical unless you already have all the devices.
Let's suppose that you are paying half the new price for the bottom-tier of each of these:
MBA: 500
iPad mini: 250
iPhone 16e: 300 * 4
Your budget is $1950. For that, you can get:
A 50" 4K TV, a Denon X1700H 7.2 receiver, 6 Klipsch R51M speakers, and a half-decent subwoofer, all new.
This will provide a far superior experience for you and a half-dozen friends, and each part will last longer, have no permanent battery to wear out, and be upgradable independently and without relying on a specific software product. I would estimate the lifetime of your proposal at about 3 years, and of my counter-proposal at 20 years.
Yours is much more portable.
- pete1302 1y agoI was eagerly expecting such practical breakdown of the Vision. Thanks for the numbers. But, the scenario is of a Open-Source solution for a Student living in a Hostel/ Home. The Vision is tilted towards Hostel Dorms where you won't bother a Home Theater, but where every friend has Apple device( any robust device with good onboard audio). My Friend himself has a MBPRO and 2 iPhones, Totalling to 6 Apple device( Audio Sinks).
