If people have other suggestions for multi room audio I’d love to see them.
- digitalsushi 8y agoNever discount the simplicity and reliability of a (legal) low power FM transmitter.
- jrowley 8y agoI attempted using an FM transmitter but I had 2 issues 1) I think my transmitter was a little noisy so that wasn’t desirable. 2) I didn’t have a nice FM receiver to test with, but didn’t want to purchase one because I thought my transmitter was noisy. So a bit of a catch 22. But FM would be great.

- askvictor 8y agoI'm still using squeezebox and really like the original hardware, plus home made receivers using pi's; it's a fully open source media system - something that doesn't seem to exist in today's landscape of vendor lock in. Nonetheless, it's showing its age somewhat, and is harder to get streaming services working on it (e.g. YouTube, play music) in part due to its open nature (also, it's written in Perl...)
