Basically any Pi with Wi-Fi will work, however I have only tested with the Pi 3.Â
Pi Zero models and the Pi 5 need further configuration to allow for analog audio out, whereas you can just use the headphone jack on the other models.
It would also be kind of a waste of a Pi 5 to use it for this basic project
For the Pi Zero models, choose either Zero W Solder or Zero 2 W Solder
I reccomend a 16GB microSD card, however 8GB should be fine as a minimum
I used a cheap gaming soundbar from a local UK store (Home Bargains) and I couldn't find out which OEM made it, however I've linked their website to buy it, you could also buy many other soundbars with a volume knob and 50mm drivers, or wire up ones yourself. Make sure you use 50mm drivers
Note: On aliexpress, choose the options Female to female, 20 pins and 20 centimetre option
This is modified raspbian with the lcd drivers and radio software pre installed.
