NAS to streaming audio
Hi are you aware of any network audio players where I can plug a NAS straight in and have the audio player access and play files? I really don’t want to have add a computer/router to the mix just to get a network stream going. Is this possible?
Yes, you have a DLNA-compatible sound/amplifier system, you can link it to your NAS.
You can also use Sonos speaker that supports SMB

You can also play on Alexa https://nascompares.com/how-to-play-music-from-nas-on-alexa/
You can also get DLNA music receivers and connect to your music system https://amzn.to/3Aa6KE7
I think the easiest way to play music is via Sonos speakers.
I hope this helps.
