I use an Allo Digione and recommend you just leave it on 24/7. Switching it on and off only messes things up and it uses next to no power compared to a laptop.
Volumio works fine with all my 450gb of flac material on a Nas via ethernet and there is a plugin that lets you run Radio Paradise which offers flac streaming. You can run Spotify, roon, etc.too. I'm strictly android too.
To save you any messing with tech you can buy an Allo Digione player pre-configured or just assemble yourself if you fancy a dabble. Not tricky.
