We're moving our TV out of the living room and into the game room. This means that I need a different way to get streaming music into the living room speakers for casual listening (these are the Shinola badged speakers from Barefoot that came out a few years back, sound nice).
The previous method was to connect a 1/8" to RCA into the back of the speakers fed from the Smart TV. I'd like to not have to tether a phone to the speakers so I'm looking for a DAC with wireless capability.
MUST HAVE - Either WiFi or Bluetooth connectivity, small enough to sit on top of the Shinolas or (more ideally) be velcro'd to the back, decent conversion. This is not my hifi room, I have another setup for that. This is podcasts and Taylor Swift and classical music in the background type stuff. Family stuff.
MUST NOT HAVE - Any type of microphone. We have enough eavesdropping devices in our house, thank you very much.
Budget? I don't know. $300 maybe? But if $50 would get me something that would feel sonically invisible that's great too.
