AirPlay 2 In-A-Box Audio Set-up using an AirPort Express!

Have an AirPort Express (AE) sitting in the closet collecting dust? Looking for outdoor AirPlay 2 speakers?Well, in this video I have a fun project where we can make use of that old AE and repurpose it to create an AirPlay 2 compatible outdoor audio system with a few more components, like a compact stereo amp and outdoor speakers. After this video you’ll be able to surround your great outdoors with music!
