🎧 The Ultimate Hi-Fi Experience: Unleash the Power of HiFiBerry DAC+ Pro Review

DAC literally rocks the house. Pretty easy to install, just plug in. You can either download a prepackaged installation with drivers or add them to the default Raspbian Pixel PI distribution. If you can follow simple instructions and edit text files, everything is fine. I'm amazed at the sound quality and how the PI sounds like high quality audio hardware. If you encounter any problems, HIFIBerry has a good support forum where you can get answers quickly. I have a friend with a quality Onkyo…

I use a DAC+ Pro in my old (but beloved) Marantz NR-1501. It doesn't include network streaming or Spotify features, so I set out to create the ultimate streaming audio player. I use Rpi 3, DAC+ Pro and Volumio 2. Along with the extremely attractive Hifiberry steel case, this is now my favorite part of the A/V system. Volumio 2 has built-in support for all Hifiberry products, it couldn't be easier to connect network drives, add the Spotify plugin and you'll be streaming great music in under half

This board is amazing! I really enjoyed using it.

I haven't done rigorous a/b comparisons but this DAC sounds very light and airy driving UPnP delivered Jazz FLAC files into a tube headphone amp and my Sennheiser HD 650 . I'm using a Raspberry Pi 2 with this DAC, headless, with a tiny wifi dongle and running the Pi2 version from OSMC. For control I use the iOS version of the Kodi Remote Control app. The device is small, handy, portable and sounds great. It acts as a kind of Wi-Fi box -> audio converter and plays all my UPnP sources. If you…

EVERYTHING sounds so much better with this DAC! I was playing music from USB sticks through an AMD Ryzen computer (Msi Tomahawk motherboard audio out) connected to a stereo until about late September 2019. All I read in all the reviews of all DACs is everyone listened to quality recording and streaming sources and how amazing it sounds. Well I haven't heard anything other than music downloaded/ripped at 192-320 Kbps in MP3 format and I'M AMAZED at how good it sounds! In fact, it sounds so good…

Speaking of value for money! This little champion delivers an incredible sound. It's smooth, very detailed, not tiring at all. Amazing soundstage. More or less perfect. You hear a familiar song and you hear details, nuances you've never heard before. Literally on every known song. It's like hearing them for the first time.
