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?

fair enough. I never really got my head around it, and i am not too concerned by the daily mixes getting mixed up, though we are getting some really crap music come through from my 10 year old!
Are you just using the 3.5mm jack for audio out?
I have speakers througout the house wired to my mechanical room and divided in 3 groups so I use a Pi4 with 3 USB sound cards with small amps
I am not sure what speaker setup I'd like when I move though! I might do it differently!

Yeah cool.
I went fully remote, 3 rPi's and Amp Hats directly to the local speakers.
That's what I was thinking for the next build. Having all clients running on the same Pi isn't necessarily the best idea, espacially with the Pi4 as the USB controller have a buffer issue I didn't have on my Pi3 when running multiple USB soundcards
i have been using these, with the first one my main one at the moment, as the suptronix one is more expensive and harder to get hold of. I typically install dietPi, as the audio setup tends to be easier.
