1. An audio entertainment system, the system comprising:
- a primary circuit board having a processor in communication with a first antenna input and a second antenna input and an audio output, the first antenna input being configured to receive a first wireless signal having at least one channel and the second antenna input being configured to receive a second wireless signal having at least one channel;
a tuner in communication with the processor and the audio output;
a connector in communication with the second antenna input, the audio output and the processor, the connector being configured to engage a corresponding connector of a digital audio circuit board, the processor being configured to detect when the digital audio circuit board is connected to the connector;
the audio output being configured to receive a first audio signal from the tuner and to receive a second audio signal from the digital audio circuit board; and
the processor configured to instruct the tuner to output the first audio signal to the audio output, the first audio signal being based on the at least one channel of the first wireless signal.
