Interesting requirement. Depending on your site, you may consider alternative solutions. If you have individual offices, I suppose the PBX route would be the best way to go; however, if you have a shared space (cube-farm, call-room, whatever), maybe you can share the music source? In that case, I'd look into slimp3s with a slimserver, and an inexpensive shelf-system as the amplifier. www.slimdevices.com would have some more pointers. If you have dropped ceilings (as must businesses do), you could even run ceiling speakers and hook them up to a slimp3 or other music source via an inexpensive car-amplifier. Oh yeah, multiple slimp3s can be synchronized.
