Streaming QOBUZ and sounding every bit as good as the Mac Mini which is off for service due to a problem moving files from the Thunderbolt drive and the main unit.No great loss in sound quality that I can hear so far.
Next is to run LMS on the wife's new iMac and rip some CDs to a USB stick and give that a listen.
Digi+ Pro and a real 5V LPS are also on the way so there may be even MORE to report later.
Who knows, might even invest in a Mega-buck S/PDIF cable before I'm done.
Hundred dollar box with thousand dollar cables is about a 'audiophile' as one can get! ;-)

I really want a Hi Fidelity bedtime system and I am thinking a Raspberry would be ideal. I get too sleepy to operate a turntable or even insert disks.

To infinity and beyond!!!
Works great. Just log into it with your MySqueezeBox credentials and it seems to work, finds you players, etc.
At least mine did.
that's what I use as well, seems to work fine.
If so, iPeng can be used either as an LMS remote or as a player. I use it on three different devices.
I listen at night on my newer iPad using Shure SE535 IEMs. :)
I have just the cable for you ole buddy. Send me your mailing address and credit card info and I will hook you up. Any preference in jacket color?

We all know that bright colored cables sound bright and dark colored cables sound dark.
Best to pick a cable color to balance out your system, so if it sounds bright pick a dark color and vise versa.

At least you are honest enough to yourself and listen to your ears.
I think when you get your LPS and especially if you run the Digi+ Pro from LPS vs from the RPi you will be hooked.
Its hard to beat direct I2S to SPDIF and cutting out all the peripherals ie [usb converter, blah blah to spdif] or even getting direct I2S from the RPi and feeding I2S to a Dac.
Bravo to you!!!!

but they haven't gotten there yet. Then we shall see how clock quality and relocking affect SQ
There are 5 pins carrying the following signals:
1 GND
2 Master clock (22.5792MHz for 44.1, 88.2, 176.4 kHz sample rates, 24.576MHz for 48,96,192kHz sample rates)
3 Bit clock (frequency = 32/64* sample rate)
4 Frame clock (frequency = sample rate)
5 Data

"..real 5V LPS are also on the way.." What are you getting? Sounds like you're having way too much fun!
I wish I had a need for another streamer so I can play along! Hmm, as things warm up I might need audio in the garage. It's been freezing cold in there but the weather is getting better.
