  • What's the best place to pick up some Pi Zeros and what's the best way to get audio out of one (3.5mm or RCA)? I'm assuming that with the lower power draw they're much less fussy about cables and power supplies than a normal Pi.

  • Can't answer your questions but I've got a phatdac you can have for a small forum donation. Got it from @Colm89.

  • I'm getting mine from https://thepihut.com/ …just dithering over what keyboard/mouse to get. The zero seems to need more accessories than I thought (MiniHDMI adapter, MicroUSB adapter, etc.).

    Can't really help on the wired audio - BT or wi-fi seem like the obvious routes as there's only a Mini HDMI and OTG USB. Could always use a HDMI>Audio splitter thing.

  • As @Stonehedge said, phatdac the easiest way to get good (unamplified) audio from a pi. I had a pizero with phatdac running volumio for streaming, into powered bookshelf speakers for a few months and it worked great.

    I only changed to using a chromecast audio as it integrated nicely with my Google home mini and homeassistant. I don't even use that now either though...
