I would get a seperate pi if it were me, but you could have seperate sd cards.
You're not going to maintain the same play queue that way if you're playing local music, if all you do is stream tidal via UPnP, or spotify etc the queue is manitained on your phone, so just use seperate sd cards.
Also, why not just take the complete work unit home or the home unit to work?
I'll have two players. Both are Pi's. Neither will be hooked to a NAS, router, or local network. The one at home is a headless unit with a 7" screen that I'll soon be hooking to a USB DAC. I run it into my HI-Fi system and pull music off a HDD directly attached to it or Apple Music from my phone.
The one at work is a dedicated hybrid tube headphone amp I'm finishing building that houses a pi-Zero, DAC hat, two power regulators and the tube amp all in a 6x9x2" box and runs off a wall-wart. It can access music either through an attached USB HDD or flash drive and stream Apple Music from my phone.
I'm not gonna lug either one back and forth as that's the point of having two.
The one at home currently uses an IQaudio Hat and the one for work will just have a Justboom ZeroDac (not looking for high quality with it).
I'm just speaking of using Moode on my phone. I'm assuming it won't automagically recognize one DAC over the other depending if I'm at home or at work?
