My company, Pi 2 Design has come out with two new DAC boards. One is Raspberry Pi and Odroid C1+/C2 compatible, while the other is for the Pi-Zero. We are porting Volumio now and testing on the Odroid C1+. We should have it all ready within the next few weeks. My apologies if this inappropriate to mention here.

Maybe I am wrong, but since the ouput is line level and goes to some downstream amp, any HW volume control should be in that amp, bot in the DAC. IMHO.

My name is TJ, I’m currently running Volumio on a Raspberry Pi B and I’m looking for an upgrade.
I basically have the same question as Malin. Michaelangelo can you tell how much degradation is caused by the lack of a hardware volume control in the DAC? Is it a few % or is it 10’s of %?

how much of a degration of sound quality the lack of h/w volume control cause?
Anyone?

There also isn’t anything preventing a 3rd party from creating and releasing their own DAC as Hifiberry has done for the Raspberry-Pi.

Doesn’t sound like a good deal…
