I have a number of them, strewn around the house, connected to USB DACs which are hooked up to the server. On that server I run mpd which is controlled through either ncmpc in a terminal session, MALP on mobile. The server also runs Airsonic since that is more efficient for remote streaming than mpd+icecast. No bleeps or bloops since the USB DACs are only used for audio streaming and also because they're on a server which doesn't produce any bleeps or bloops to begin with.
