An internet radio compatible with HA?

Hardware
1

I am slowly un-googling my life and now comes the time of radios. I have internet radios (the EU-smart from Logitech (abandoned by Logitech) and an Ocean Digital)

I would like to have something that is compatible with HA, and manageable from within HA.

Do you know of such a device?

I know about Radio Browser - Home Assistant but this would require some kind of standalone wireless speaker, and could not be directly operated from the device.

This is my second choice - if someone has some experience with that approach I would also appreciate very much some feedback (especially about the speaker)

I have few of “auna” company internet radios. Beware however that those radios have (at least) two chipsets inside: one is “frontier silicon” and other is “nuvoton”. First one works perfectly with HA, second one … not so much, so avoid that one, since you can only do very basic things via HA.

Which chip is used can be determined by seeing which app it’s used: if “undok” is used chipset is frontier silicon, while nuvoton uses “airmusic”. Frontier Silicon is natively recognized in HA.

there appear to be several esp32 based internet radio projects that I would expect to be supported or usable with HA
