There's a few technology shops somewhat locally I found on opening-times , so will be visiting this weekend to see if they have any in the first place for sale - if I do end up finding them, are there any things I should know before buying? I know I want at least 2TB of storage which doesn't seem to be a whole lot, but enough where things start getting quite pricey and I don't want to end up with the wrong thing for my situation!

Many thanks in advance! Both have unofficial but up to date LMS apps. Works very well and is very well supported here. There is Asustor with offical app. Originally Posted by onkal.

LMS - definitely the way to go - supported by a fabulous community and Logitech - the original software was open source , the clients run on RPi and lots of other low cost hardware, developers react to changes with amazing speed we weren't cut off by the BBC changing their streaming strategy for more than a few hours - you can run it on a NAS, a RPi, or as I do, on a serious spec windows server, makes no difference, the code is solid and constantly updated.

For hats on the RPI I would look at Allo, they have some really good ones that can cost a bit but they have been great in my experience and really good support from them. My first hat was a hifiberry but really prefer my digione signature. Now i am using picoreplayer with LMS 8. The newest LMS version 8 still beta , integrates streaming services and works great. There is also the "Material" plugin available, and it gives LMS a much more modern look that also incorporates some Web metadata.

I mostly use Roon, but LMS is still a good alternative. Works great on a Pi, and you can also setup a Pi with a touchscreen and it does pretty much a perfect emulation of an SBT, except with a 2X size screen and more capability. Moppit , Emlin , and 3 others like this.

The Squeezebox Touch is one of the all time great hi-fi products. AndyU , Apr 24, Emlin , vince rocker , Del monaco and 1 other person like this. I much prefer LMS to Roon - tried it for the second time recently as it seemed easiest way to get streaming and stored music to HQPlayer. Still didn't like the interface on Roon, it's a mess.

And then it did not work well with Qobuz - endless halting of the flow of music, had to restart the track. No patience with that. LMS was more difficult to get integrated into HQPlayer but the gui is much cleaner Orangesqueeze on an android tablet and Qobuz works without issue.

And it cost me
