Apologies in advance if asking an annoying question here.
Have a toddler at home and another one coming soon. Spending a lot of time now in the living room playing, which is great, and love listening to music on my 2.0 setup in the living room. Typically I use Spotify on my smart tv and go from there to a NAD integrated and then into my kef bookshelf speakers. Here’s my ask; I want to move away from Spotify and the smart tv because I want to keep the screen off. I want to have my pc streaming my digital library to something, maybe a raspberry pi, which I could maybe control from my phone. I’ve used Ubuntu on a 10+ year old MacBook, and run that to my dac and then to the nad, but Linux and the windows pc requires I reset connection each time, it’s just not great for creature comforts.
Just seeing if anyone has suggestions for an application like this. Cheaper and simpler is best. Was just playing cds for a while, until little guy became mobile, and he just can’t stay away from the button that makes the tray go in and out….ha.
