DietPi v139

[Rothchild]

Another release for this great distro for your SBC (despite being called Diet Pi it's actually compatible with at least 16 different types of single board computers, not just Raspberry Pi)

Major audio feature in this latest version is the inclusion of Roon Bridge software

They're also providing 'out of the box' support for this new range of audio hardware

V140 now features NAA daemon which should be of interest to Roon users. http://www.signalyst.com/consumer.html

Latest patch also features options to swap out the kernel for a high frequency version (for all you bat eared listeners ;-))

There's also now 'out of the box' support of the heavily promoted Allo cards.

Seems like the upgrade to support Allo hardware coincides with full support for the whole Vana player with DietPi and the offer of a discount for DP users: http://fuzon.co.uk/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=1204
