My old speaker now plays in perfect sync with my Sonos through Home Assistant, and all it took was a $69 device
The Home Assistant Connect AUX-2 is a great device that works perfectly with Sendspin.
A small $69 device called the Home Assistant Connect AUX-2 has made it easy to sync an older speaker with a modern Sonos system. The Nabu Casa company, behind Home Assistant's official hardware, released the AUX-2 box that plugs into the 3.5 mm input of any audio equipment with an analog or optical input. It turns the audio equipment into a Music Assistant player, adding smart home features as well.
With the AUX-2, any audio equipment can be easily integrated into a smart home, making older speakers perfect for today's smart home systems.
