I've got one of these. Got it from a guy in Malaysia on ebay. Only cost
about 14GBP. OK if you don't mind waiting a week for it to arrive.
Sounds pretty good, too.

Always the hardest route to get a simple thing done? Solutions:

1) Go to Ebay and buy a Boom, issue solved.
2) Go to Ebay and buy an SB Radio (Baby), they are all over ebay for
$79, issue solved.
3) Install iPeng on an iPhone and stream LMS music to the phone (add
external speaker via headphone out if not loud enough for you). 
4) Go to Ebay and buy a SB Controller and connect headphone out to any
powered speaker, issue solved.
5) Buy a Raspberry Pi3b, HiFiBerry AMP2, and power supply to power
whatever speakers you have laying around, issue solved.
Power supply

6) Use 3M Command Clips to run Speaker wire high on wall near ceiling
from another room to a speaker(s) in the bathroom. Command Clips come
down without leaving any marks.
7) Leave bathroom door open and play music from another room really
loud!
8) And on and on, what is the deal with trying to add Bluetooth when it
is not needed?

Do you have a good 2.0 speakers with Jack for bathroom ?  No need

Unless you're planning on immersing the speaker, or subjecting it 
directly to water spray, the exposed jack with plug inserted shouldn't 
present a issue for water entry into the device.

If you are already running LMS someplace just go on Ebay or Craigslist
and start looking for a Baby (Squeezebox Radio w/ battery) and be done

Re: [slim] Speaker for bathroom

2017-10-20 Thread Ron Thigpen
I think I'd be looking for a set of small powered/active speaker (that 
is, speakers with a built-in amplifier).


Depending on the dampness levels and ventilation in the room, it might 
make sense to look for speakers are either waterproof or at least built 
for damp environments.


There is a product category generally called "outdoor speakers" that are 
designed to be installed on decks, patios and gardens.  The catch here 
is that these are mostly unpowered designs.


If you don't find an active outdoor speaker to your liking, also 
consider using a portable or home "Bluetooth" speaker.  Although 
products in this category usually carry the "Bluetooth" moniker, most 
all of them have a standard 3.5mm stereo aux input.


There are an enormous variety of models available, and many of them are 
designed to be waterproof.  As a bonus, they usually have rechargeable 
on-board batteries, giving you a dual-use option.


As far as specific models:

I have an (older model) TDK A33 that works great.

Good reviews for all of these (and many, many others...):

JBL Flip 4
Logitech UE ROLL 2
VAVA Voom 21
Sony XRSXB3

Good luck.

Re: [slim] Speaker for bathroom

It's not my house, so I can't use in wall speakers sadly. 

Thank all for yours answers. 

Why use a complex system in bathroom ?

Sometime I quickly take my shower so I don't have time to make a
playlist. 

Or sometime I don't want to take my phone to make a playlist.

Etc...So I use my nodon button to launch songs mix and skip if I don't
want to listen. 

It's ok but my button can't get into shower so I have to use it outside.


Control isn't the first problem. max2play, is it possible to use
Bluetooth speaker with your image ?

Hi guys,

@Hydro: First of all, congrats on what sounds like a great setup! :)
On your intended expansion; waterproof components are not really that
common for Raspberry Pi. Most cases are rather open. However, if you are
able to place the Pi out of harm's way, the new AMP2 by HiFiBerry could
be a great option for this zone. It supports higher voltages up to 24V
and nearly all common speakers between 4 and 8 ohms impedance allowing
you to get your speakers from the stereo into the mix. Nonetheless, the
device should not get splashed with water, ideally ;)

Mhh. I use (sometimes) an Airplay speaker in the bathroom, but I don't
know of any that would be waterproof.
Your Rpi with an integrated amp doesn't look like a bad option, assuming
the zwave button is waterproof.

Re: [slim] Speaker for bathroom

What? Who in the world needs to control music while in the shower?
Put a playlist on, set the volume to the level you want, then take a
shower IE don't interface with electronics while wet or in the bathroom!


I use a Baby (SB Radio) in the master bathroom only on battery, I turn
it on, create a playlist or select a whole album, set the volume level
to where I want it, then shave and take my shower. The downstairs bath,
in the basement, has a steam bath shower stall (take a shower or take a
schvitz) so I have installed two waterproof coaxial car speakers in the
ceiling and now drive them with a Amp Hat on a rPI in the hallway
towel/linen closet (I get power off the closet light bulb socket with
one of the screw in plug adapters and the speaker wires go into the
ceiling at the back corner of the Closet and out to the bathroom
speakers) this gives a permanent full time solution.

There are many options for this depending on what you already own, what
you want to use, or even how much you want to spend or not spend.

[slim] Speaker for bathroom

2017-10-17 Thread Hydro

Hi

I try to find on my own a speaker for my bathroom but I don't find it. 

Basically I've got a rpi on my bathroom with max2play. I've got a old
HiFi stereo with rpi connect to AUX. 

I've got a zwave button next to my shower to control music (by http
request).

I want to remove the hifi stereo but I don't find what to buy. 

- hifiberry ampli and keep speakers from my stereo ?

- basic speakers to connect through jack ?

- Bluetooth speaker but how to connect to my rpi and sync with others
Squeezebox ?

If the speaker is waterproof it's a big +1. I saw the altec lansing
jacket h2o but I don't know if the jack is waterproof. 

Same questions about controlling music, is there a solution to get
inside the shower ?

Thank for your help !
