The bare minimum is the Raspberry Pi itself and a power supply (micro
USB ... but recommend that you buy a Pi one rather than reuse an old
phone charger) - plus a micro SD card.

If you don't have somewhere good to run it without a case (e.g. inside a
speaker case) then get a case for it as well.

If you want sound out of it then you need to work out how you are going
to do that since it does not have a built in speaker.

Cheapest and similar quality to the mini-din socket on a Joggler is the
mini-din socket on the Pi ... but watch out because not all models have
one.
They all have HDMI output though so that is another way to capture
sound.
Most go for an add on board (a HAT - see the IQaudio ones from Raspberry
Pi which are the result of them acquiring the assets of another company)
or a USB audio card.
These go from 6GBP to lots.

Since you are going to run LMS on it then it is best to get one with an
Ethernet socket (again - not all do).
