I tried Volumio on the PC that I normally use with Windows 10 and Foobar 2000.
The interface in Volumio is really great both locally and over IP even on my phone. I have mixed feelings on the sound quality. The overall presentation does seem more wide open, makes the Windows 10/ Foobar2000 combo sound more closed in by comparison, but the bass response seems to be much lower and less complex in Volumio and the sound seems less musical.
I started exploring options for running Volumio on the Raspberry Pi and there seems to be a lot of information and options for doing this, but not a lot of information on how the sound quality compares to DAC/ PC/ Windows based solutions.
Multiple forums talk about linear .vs switching power supplies and different DAC solutions. The Mamboberry HIFI DAC seems to be the best overall and the company that makes this DAC even has an all in one media box that looks pretty great and the price is right, but again no direct comparisons.
