Hi folks,
I’m building a family member a hifi, I’m nice like that!
Anyway, in my system, I use Apple TV 3 and a Toppings D30 DAC to stream music through the internet from my phone directly into the system. It works a treat, sound lovely (along with other sources).
The family member uses an Android phone, so what device should I use instead of Apple TV to enable her to stream music into the system via her phone? Not looking for a Bluetooth solution, prefer internet bases for better audio.
That’s all, simple question.
Thanks
Marlin

Re: Android music streaming
What’s a NAS?
Edit. I googled, and understand.
I’m not looking for NAS at the moment, just simply streaming music from Spotify to the hifi. Simple, but good sounding solution.

Re: Android music streaming
Same as above.
A simple Raspberry Pi based player with, for example, a Hifiberry DAC (RCA stereo output), running with Volumio OS can give you Spotify access and all controlled via the browser on the smartphone.

Re: Android music streaming
I do fancy building a feature full Raspberry Pi streamer (with twin mono dacs) at some point in the future, but just need a simple solution for the time being.

Re: Android music streaming
Just get an old android phone, a phono to 3.5mm jack lead, plug into the phone headphone socket on the phone and the other end into the amp and use Spotify or whatever.
Simple, dunno if the sound quality will be up to standard for whoever will be using it, I do this every now and again with YouTube playlists

I think I have found a simple solution:

This, plus a DAC, job done.
