Hello. I want to make an server for my audio system. The hole ideea is to stream music from and android and an iphone(apple music) directly to my server and to play it. I want ideeas that doesnt need investments. Thank you!

Maybe a Bluetooth receiver? Or a Chromecast? (though the audio-only version is EOL, I think)
