Apple Intelligence is now available on iPhone, iPad, and Mac!
I'm using an Apple Airport Extreme to run my wi-fi, and extending it using an Airport Express. These are starting to wear out. What devices are there that can replace the Express for attaching my stereo to the network so I can continue using Airplay?
Mac mini, macOS 10.13
Eventually I just replaced the Airport Express with a Linksys network extender. Of course this doesn't support Airplay, so I just bought a bluetooth plug for my stereo. Sad to see Airport just abandoned like a Newton and other superior Apple products of their time.

AirPort Expresses (and AirPort Extremes) are available in new, refurbished and used versions on both Amazon and Ebay.
If your stereo amplifier has an HDMI input, you could also use an Apple TV for AirPlay as well.
If you are looking for AirPlay capability....and don't want to purchase a refurbished or used AirPort Express, you might want to check out the new AirPlay adapter from Belkin. Details in the link below:
Airport Express device continues to flash amber even after resetting, reconnecting to internet and music system per instructions. When I go to Airport Utility to find cause of flashing amber, message says “cannot find a base station.” What am I missing or has device failed?
what bluetooth plug did you get?
To be seen as an "other" base station, it takes a difficult reset, which is done by unplugging it, and pushing in the reset button WHILE plugging it back in. Helps to have 4 hands.
Since Apple doesn't make Airport devices any more, how can I attach my stereo to the network?
