I’m looking to integrate “dumb” speakers into HA, and I came across these AudioCast devices on Aliexpress: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005003331228026.html

It says it’s DLNA and Airplay compatible, so I’m assuming it should work with HA. Anyone tried that before?

    How exactly are you planning to integrate? Have a playlist on your HASS host that plays to the device, or stream from device->HASS->speaker?

      I was planning to do it via Music Assistant, so it would be HA => MA => AudioCast => Speaker

        I haven’t tried MA yet. I was thinking of tying mine into mpd

    I’ve purchased a stereoboomm speaker for cheaper and it has an audio out jack. Very happy with it.
