My Pi starter kit arrived in da'hoose this afternoon. Just downloading the Volumio image now. The IQaudio DAC+ is out of stock until after April the 20th according to Gordon so I'll be using USB to start with until stock is available and may also connect up to my DIY TDA1541a NOS DAC using I2S….
I've been studying the PSU feeds on the Pi and think it would be quite easy to get a good linear supply built for the Pi and one for the DAC. This would improve the USB power supply for USB DACs, I don't think it is going to be necessary to go bonkers on the PSU especially given the price and that there are some very good performing off-the shelf regulators available these days...
It will be interesting to compare to my modded SB…great fun project!
