Home Audio Setup / Snapcast

Speaker controls

We use Snapcast to transmit music through our house.

Snapcast is an Open Source multi-room audio software package. It consists of a server that controls what is playing and clients connected to speakers through out the house.

We have a "Snapclient" in the following rooms

  • Front porch
  • Living room
  • Dining room
  • Office
  • Bedroom
  • Heidi's room

Most of the Snapclients are running on a Raspberry Pi (of different variations Pi 4, Pi Zero, Radxa Zero).

The living room uses "real" speakers with an amp, while other rooms use Bluetooth speakers connected over line-in.

The dining room uses a Bose speaker that has USB audio input - which is nice because it avoids ground loops - but I haven't been able to find any other speakers that have this option.
