Newbie in sound system - Building his own

karibu

Hi there,

I've decided to start investing a bit and build some touchscreen systems for my music.

I'm currently using Kodi, on a Nuc, connected to 2 "amplified speaker" as they called. (Microlab Solo8C)
And I'd like to be able to control my music remotely with a dedicated touchscreen. (I arrive home and I touch few buttons, to get my sweet music,....)

I've purchased a RPI3 and a touchscreen to do it.

I like the RuneAudio interface but the audio connection from the RPI might not be that good and I only have 1 set of speakers,
I can put some music on and I might want to stop it to watch a movie for example.

Any idea which type of configuration I should do in this case?

Thank you

You are investing in really a nice sound system. Hope you get a proper configuration for your music system that you are going to set up.

How is your nuc PC connected to speakers? Over digital? If so than you still have an RCA input on speakers. This input can be used for your music RPi. But you would need some decent DAC board (Audiophonics I-Sabre, HifiBerry or similar)for your RPi as the analogue OUT is rubbish.
