RPi Zero W with Hifiberry mini Amp
I built a couple of speakers from an old pair of computer speakers
I used a bunch of scrap plywood and created the "tiger" striped wood by cutting ⅝ strips and gluing them together to form a board
There are 4 radio presets - using simple iron rivets as the buttons
The knob is from an old JVC cd/radio
The nice thing is that by adding a couple of LEDs I can indicate that the unit is playing - The LEDs are driven from the GPIO using the lcdup.py file and adding detection for when the mpc shows playing
The little amp is loud enough with the little 4 Ohm speakers
Power supply is an old Blackberry charger
A very apt build for a bedroom
I would paint the cabinets/enclosures to match something in the Albert image.... perhaps even each a different colour.
How cold is it there this time of year ?
