Abstract
A set of audio output devices may be established and configured to output channel specific audio. Once established, the channel configuration may be changed and updated in response to events such as changes to user preference, or the addition or subtraction of audio output devices to the network. In some embodiments, the reconfiguration may be performed on the fly while audio content is being outputted by the audio output devices.
