Hello everybody. I’d like to ask if somebody could recommend a audio device that has sound quality at least in a leveling the echo 4 (not dot) that also has line-in for audio so one could connect a Home Assistant Voice PE to it. Thx in advance

If the Google Nest Hub 2 had audio-in it would be a good device

i dont have an echo 4 to compare it to but it does quite well for general music

It’s rather cheap. I could give it a try. Maybe I could come up with a 3d printed shell to make it all into a single package (whilst still having the microphones free on the PE)

yeah, just remember an isolation transformer if your using the same power supply for both devices
