I had a look at my Volumio install yesterday and the Allo hat is a pre-installed option on there so it should be easy to set up.

Thanks.
Frustratingly the zero is out of stock and I'm not keen on paying a premium for it, so wondering about a 3 instead, but then the cheaper Allo hat will put the audio outs in an odd place and the more expensive one is...well, more expensive and drifts into otp 2nd hand options.
Although I've been watching a lot of John Darko on YT and the Allo stuff seems to be well rated.

Cheers.
I've never soldered proper electronics. Last time for my pihole I figured the extra £4 was worth it.
TBH I've got limited idea on how the whole streaming thing works, so just getting into the wormhole. But from a bit of reading that Allo hat sounds like it's actually alright and low cost at c.£50 all in. Everything else I looked at seemed to rapidly escalate in cost.
