Review on 🎧 NanoSound ONE Case by Argon - High-Fidelity Raspberry Pi Audio Player with HiFi DAC (Digital to Analog Converter), Argon ONE Case for Raspberry Pi 4 (Rpi4 Not Included) by Ken Perry

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Took my Pi4 to a whole new level

I've gone through many music streamers including: - various Bluetooth devices (cheap dongle, Aiyima Tube A3 pro with updates and iFi Zen Blue which I sent back ) - multiple Wi Streamers -Fi of different quality (Sonos Connect Gen2, Klipsch Gate) - streaming from my phone (cheap LG) I've recently become interested in the concept of streaming Raspberry Pi 4 using Volumio (or others). My initial reaction to this combination was very good and I wanted to take the sound quality (and body/body) to the next level. This DAC/housing combo is just amazing. I am very impressed with how easy the installation was and how easy it was to activate the Nanosound One DAC in the Volumio app. I'm not interested in spending that kind of money. Out of all the above devices, I would rank them in this order: 1. Pi4/Nanosound One with Volumio2. Clipsch Gate3. Aiyima Tube A3 Pro with 5654W tubes and upgraded Muse 89204 op amp Sonos Connect Gen2 (but sounds better when connected to a DAC)5. Cheap bluetooth dongle I would put iFi Zen Blue between Tube A3 Pro and Connect.
