# Kristian8606/esp32-airplay2-surround

> The project turns cheap ESP32-S3 boards into wireless AirPlay 2 receivers, one per channel of a 5.1/7.1 system: each board decodes only its own channel and feeds it to an amplifier and speaker. It lets you build multichannel surround without an AV receiver or cables between speakers.

## Useful for

- Build a wireless 5.1 system from six ESP32-S3 boards with MAX98357A amplifiers.
- Set the speaker position and parametric EQ via the board's web interface.
- Add another speaker to the AirPlay group by simply powering on a new board.

## Why it’s here

- Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-30 (UTC), 09:23–10:56: 122 → 123 stars (+1). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +6 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
- The repository is 6 days old and already has 123 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
- Top new repositories this week: #175.

## Star trust

Star growth looks organic.

Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer.

## Numbers

- Forks: 7
- Issues and pull requests: 0
- Watchers: 3
- Average over the last week: 18 per day
- Usual pace: too little history (under two weeks)
- Stars in the last hour (measured): 1

## Stars per day, last 7 days (oldest → newest, today is partial)

2026-10-24 … 2026-10-30: 0, 0, 61, 34, 12, 14, 1

Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score.
Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast.
Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
