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'm using snapcast, though more as an alternative for icecast to just play my music from mpd, rather than for its more advanced syncing features.
snapserver is on my main server, and snapclient on my desktop PC, my laptop, and on raspberry pi's connected to main speakers throughout the house. I can start/stop the clients via my home automation system.
it sounds like you use it for sync'ing if you have multiple clients?
how are you getting audio out of the rPi's?
