LIRC I/R ? Buttons...???
Yep, certainly an option, but the Pi running moode is going to be hidden along with the amplifier. So IR would be difficult and running cables to / from GPIO buttons isn't an option given the room layout.
Using a 2nd Pi (say a Pi zero) I could have a faux-kitchen-radio-type set-up (wife friendly!) which would deal with 90% of the user interactions. It could even have a screen to show the time / date / station / song etc. All communicated over the LAN.
That's the idea anyhow.
