Actually a lot of high end speaker installations now use ethernet to get speaker signals from sound consoles to the speakers instead of running speaker wires. The info is stransported to the amps via ethernet then distributed from there to the speakers in the array. This is not very different from what could be done in home sound. All controlled from one place but having the equiptment all right next to the speaker or built in and just having one wire. Still looks like it's only practical in multiple room setups though.
