Hey there ADVANCED RPi users! What OS are you running and for what purpose e.g. Tidal, Qobuz, Spotify Connect, AirPlay, Roon ?
One of my favorite Darko videos! Already subscribed, so looking forward to more. Scott
which Hardware DAC or USB DAC is the Best for the Raspi
wihich distro sounds the best ?
Amazingly informative John. Thank you.
Johnnie Dark’O good intro fair and balanced too! What a republican presentation.
I'm not into streaming, but I ripped all my CDs to my computer years ago. I'd love to know how to not have my laptop in my stereo system and use something like a RPi to connect to a hard drive, use a touch screen to find what I want to listen to, and connect to a DAC. Any ideas?
Great review 👍
What LPS do u like?
Is there a HAT for better USB?
Thanks John. Looking for low profile options for a bedroom system. These are inexpensive enough to experiment with.
Holy cow! I have been trying to find something to do with my Raspberry Pi, and looking for a solution to stream audio from my local NAS, Spotify, etc. I can't thank you enough! I know what I'm doing this weekend! Yay!
Digital over USB? From my years of experience working with digital if there are no errors in the transmission of the "0" and "1" you are golden. That being said USB has always been a resource hog… Out of curiosity I attached my Audio interface that I use for recording, (relatively new) to the Raspberry Pi 4. Maybe the Raspberry Pi 4 hardware has better USB it seemed to sound about as cloce to what I was mixing on the big workstation using the same amp speaker (near field monitors). Though the DAW software was struggling on playback using 32bit float at what ever sample rate I was using at the time when i recorded the song, the rendered results played fine on media Player VLC 16bit wave and MP3. this was using both the USB 2 and USB 3 ports on different tryouts. Yes there is the typical click and pop changing playback software that I get with this interface when using ALSA when I'm using "JACK connection kit" on the workstation there is no odd clicks and pops under Linux. it also draws its power from the USB port too. I could see my self using this in the field one day with a battery pack and portable screen.
Ps. the latency was low-enough to record harmonising backing vocals… Though I would never use this set up permanently It was just to find out how well it works… The digital from the HDMI is very clean, dynamic and musical through one of my playback DACs
I'm late to the party. While my DFB was great with my Pi, the Digi one is a few steps up. Well worth the purchase.
Is it possible to airplay to a sonos speaker with this setup. Or do sonos speakers only play within the sonos eco system?
Your videos are really good. Seriously! As always, a fantastic speech. This video opens my mind because I`m thinking to buy a streamer like the Bluesound Node 2i but I`m not sure.
One more like from me. I have a raspberry pi gathering dust. This video opens the door of music streaming to me with much fun and the lowest cost. Thanks. So I ordered a DAC to team up with the pi.
Could you review different Hats?
I would get a couple of PI's but no one shows how to put operating system on it or you need 100other item to just get the damn thing to work
And is the DAC in the Arcam good enough, or need a different One.?
Hi John.
Lovin' the videos thanks. can you please give me a bit of advice. I have a arcam solo movie 5 .1. With kef floorstanders. What streamer/ server would you suggest. I'm like you I have all my cds from UK.
Cheers Micky
I wish that you would provide a rudimentary comparison to your "vintage" Marantz. I have a Marantz CD5001 and SA8001 that I like. Not quite 30 years old like yours, but closer to 15.
Having just built my own NUC and installed ROCK, I'm now trying to figure out how to get a headphone jack "onto" my NAD M10 (yes I've watched your NAD/NAIM video). You've given me some more things to explore at my local IT store. I can possibly now use my Burson Audio headphone amp 🙂 Thanks John. Cheers from lockdown, Melbourne Australia
How can I stream to my phone when not at home?
Great video, very illuminating! Please don't use such a shallow depth of field!
Very nice avideo and a good introduction to raspberry pi – audio streaming. Certainly for me, someone trying to find his way in the wonderful world of the PI.
Interesting but too complicated
Single* board computer, sorry mate i had to
Hi John, Loving the channel do you have any videos on the new Raspberry Pi 4? I want to create a DAC and would prefer to purchase 4 verses the 3 model.
Still trying to get this done…deciding if I SHOULD get the latest raspberry pi I’m still trying to get the “ best “ for the cheapest !
Can it do tidal via airplay?i have ipeng on my iphone. Is roon a must?
Absolutely excellent .. thank you so much for taking the time to explain all of this ..but holy cow ..the blue nose thing at the end… 1100 USD … that will get you a boat loads of pi's
So does Ropieee have Roon preinstalled?
Where is the Roon Core installed?
No I'd rather eat a raspberry pi… 😂😂
Just found your Channel, my setup is Raspberry PI + Schiit Modi 3 + Spotify, Volumio, I rediscover the joy of listening the streaming music, thanks John from Montreal, Canada. Next step is Spotify to Tidal
What if I want to use Spotify? Is this an option?
The title is a bit misleading. I came here to see how to stream to youtube or twitch or RTMP, but it was just a sound thing :/ (From a google search) Just add Audio in front of Streamimg since Streaming in general means video&audio
I wish the only fiddly bit was burning an OS onto SD and connecting a HAT…
