I love it!
It gets used every day at my house, and i have build a ryobi battery powered portable speaker for when i am working outside. I typically use RPi3 and RPi0, with an amp-hat to power speakers.
does anyone else use it? and if so, what is your setup and have you found any decent hardware/solutions?
I use it for multiroom audio with Spotify. Main node is a random low power x86 box which doubles as my torrent server, and the only one client is an old atom netbook with 1gb ram, both hooked up to speakers. The flat is quite small so it's more than sufficient, I just wanted more even loudness distribution.
I have some stability issues with it, but to be honest it might be the hardware's fault too. I'd love to build a uniform set of all-in-one nodes with raspberry pis/batteries/speakers tho.
