Multiroom setup

Note that the Multiroom Sender cannot also be a Receiver i.e. send audio to itself.

Yeah,this is what is getting me since this Pi is feeding audio from a Dac to the speakers.

SENDER CONFIGURATION
The Sender should be a dedicated player not connected to speakers or headphones.

The Pi is getting my Music from a Nas share. That Pi is then sending Music over a Dac on the Pi to my speakers. So I just need to use another Pi to act as a receiver to send audio to the other speakers?

It's a bit confusing since many multiroom implementations support the sender computer also being able to receive the sent stream. Thats not possible in moode multiroom.

In your scenario with 2 rooms you would need a dedicated pi for the sender (not connected to speakers) and two receiver Pi's each connected to the room speakers.

This Sender Pi can get music from your NAS share and also run Airplay, Bluetooth and Spotify renderers.

Your Pi / DAC / Speakers setup can still play music directly from the NAS when the Receiver is off.
