We have 2 computers that need to be wired. We have 2 iPads that need to be wireless. We have 2 floors and would like to run the stereo from a third wireless Mac.  Suggestions, please?

We have 2 PCs (Windows 7)that are wired. We have 2 iPads that are wireless. We will get a Mac Pro to load all our CDs onto it and would like to play music through the stereo system using an airport. We have a wired/wireless router upstairs and the stereo is downstairs.
Would an Airport work with this configuration?
Thanks.

I have a similar set up to the original poster (cable modem with Airport Express on 3rd floor, iMac on first floor kitchen, wirelessly streaming music to our stereo on first floor living room which also has an Airport Express). We have a good cable connection to our house usually 10 - 30 Mbs, and a strong Airport wireless signal everywhere, but it's impossible to get smooth audio. It works for a while, maybe 10 mins or so, hen drops out, comes back for another 3 or 4 mins, then drops out again.... eventually stopping completely.If I just plonk my iPhone 4 down a few feet from the stereo, I can stream iTunes, or Pandora al night with no problems, no interruptions!!
I thought I'd get a better "boosted" signal by using the Airport Express attached to the living room stereo, but it doesn't seem to make any difference?
What's the solution? Any tips for getting a better audio connection?
Thanks!
