Orchard Audio Applepi DAC?

@Michelangelo, the Applepi DAC is shipping now (hasn’t got to me yet) ; is there a plan to incorporate support within Volumio?

Thanks,

Chris M

HI,

I cannot see why not …

Even if this board is far from what they claim … “ApplePi DAC is the most advanced and highest performance sound card hat for the Raspberry Pi” :laughing:

Really? You must know very well the difference. Can you please share it with us? Not necessarily the measurement, only the audition feedback wil be enough.

The ApplePi DAC is fully supported in volumio.

It can now also be purchased in the volumio shop.

For those who may be interested check out GALA, it is essentially a fully stand alone version of ApplePi DAC with SPdif input.

Yes ok, we got it. You wrote it ONLY 3 times… Avoid spam thanks, one post is enough

Here’s interesting; I’ve realised that I’m now running the amp at -44, rather than -37, just to maintain the same sound level. Looks like the burn-in actually took a bit longer. This is a neat bit of kit…
