Looking for possibilities to play mp3s on my analogue stereo, without having to start the pc. Any suggestions? Dongles, apps, standalone players. Anything goes. What do you use and are you satisfied with it?

ok, simple sentences: i have a old stereo receiver, dont want to run a pc to quickly play mp3s, flac and what not.
would love to buy a music playing device to use with my stereo.
or maybe a dongle that allows to play music from my mobile on the old stereo.
voice controlled preferrably.
do you lot play digital music and how?

if you dont want to give away private details, you can always say "a friend of mine uses..." but it seems ill have to find something myself.

example: "a friend of mine uses alexa, he says its fantastic" or "why dont you buy one of these dongles, that let you connect your android phone to your pre-war antique non-wifi receiver?"
or "use the internet, dork" (my favourite)

Phone to stereo using aux port. Most likely on phones end you'll need a USB to aux dongle. Unless it's an older phone, in which case it'll have an aux port itself.
At that point you can talk to your phone and it will control audio in the stereo,
But is plugging all that in faster than just booting the pc which it already sounds like you have connected? Questions you'll have to answer.
Goodluck, godspeed.

the point exactly is to not plug in anything. there are bluetooth adaptors and im most likely gonna buy one,
so i can just flip the switch on the power cord and receiver, woofer (in the pool) and 5v bluetooth adaptor are ready to go. speak or type something into my phone and can play internat radio, mp3s and playlists from the couch, bed and so on.
my phone has just about the size to store a sufficient amount of music. just gotta hook it up to the pc every once in a while to get new stuff on it.

however im having trouble installing a voice activated app on my huawei. so far nothing worked.
amazons voice activaion works pretty well on youtube videos in the living room, but i dont want to run a tv when i just want to listen to music.
so far NONE of amazons products seem to have a standalone aux output. its ridiculous. i was thinking about using a fire tv cube to use all tv, series and music in one device and storage, but no, they have to spare the aux output, stupid fucks.apparently everyone is supposed to have echo (TM) or certain bluetooth tech to replace cables. i have no clue wether a fire tv cube would connect to a third party, lets say, logitech bluetooth to audio adaptor, but that would be a workaround. for another 40€ to the 150€ cube tv device.

ok, so if i hook up fire tv cube with hdmi to tv, and for music: hdmi to receiver via a hdmi -> cinch audio cable (15€) it will do practically everthing i want. then i can hook up a unused ssd as music storage, old media players as movie storage, use netflix and everything else connected by voice command, over the fire tv remote and the installed apps on there. going to test the apps with my current cheapo fire tv stick (and a usb otg spliter cable) to see if works fine.
