PERFECT HAT! The speaker is pretty big.

Works very well as an RPi HAT, but the speakers were too big for my use case. They are approximately 100mm x 44.5mm x 21mm (L x W x D) which is quite large compared to the average Pi! Luckily I was able to use the screw terminals to connect another salvaged speaker from another device.

Pros
  • Finally bought
Cons
  • Can be damaged

Simple and good USB audio alternative for pi zero

I originally got this because I had problems with the USB pi zero data port failing. So far this works great, you just have to pay attention to the GPIO pins used and their schematics are well documented.

Pros
  • Easy setup
Cons
  • too dumb

Not working, outdated drivers

When correctly connected to my Raspberry Pi 3 B, PI does not turn on. When I emailed support (which was decent, response time 1-3 days), they finally said that the drivers only work on an older version of the Raspberry Pi OS. If you are ok with losing all your data and reinstalling the operating system, please feel free to buy this product. Otherwise don't buy.

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Unbelievable price

Follow the instructions, works as advertised

With a few tweaks the downloaded instructions were perfect. FIRST TRY! Good sounding speakers on a Rasp Pi 3B+ that I installed specifically for him on one of the 3B+. Well done !

Pros
  • Done
Cons
  • Some cons

DOA Computer Components

After hours of troubleshooting and testing, I found that the DOA device. It would be nice if the kit included stands and speakers.

Pros
  • Only positive
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
