PC audio to Analog pre-amp..Tried USB powered FM xmitter: noisy with weak signal ...

small PC, or used PC painted black.

XMMS responds to commands sent from remote terminals but I'm sure I saw a better solution somewhere.

Lots of new products around to do this.. Here is one that will stream audio from a PC over a wireless network to a black box connected to your HiFi..

Other products exist that use a wired network...

You can even buy a kit..

The above are just examples. I can't recommend them as I've not used them. Google for something like "stream mp3 to your hifi"

Ideally you want the black box to control the stream so you don't have to go to the PC to skip a track etc.

This'll use ~50W typically. There are small wifi routers that run linux, can run streaming apps, and accept plug in USB soundcards.

WGT634U?

The power saved over the 'old PC' will usually pay for it in a few months.

sounds about right.

that's a cool idea.

huh?

I pay at 15c/Kwh, It'd take more than a few months at $5.40 per month.

Google.

But not very many. Under a year - based on typical ebay BIN price - I haven't looked at new price, as AIUI, it's stopped being available. I assume there are newer units similar.
