The Amazon Echo 2nd Generation was released on October 31, 2017. It is a 5.8" tall Bluetooth smart speaker that features Alexa, a cloud-based voice service that can answer questions and play music.

Convert Echo-2ndGen to "dumb" bluetooth speaker (no Alexa!)

I want to use my Amazon Echo (2nd Gen) as a ‘dumb’ bluetooth speaker without using Alexa. I know I can match it to an Arduino or RasPi which would manage the Alexa piece. But it would be way cool to access the Echo 2gen bluetooth radio directly.

Thoughts? General idea suggesttions welcome.

Thanks
