I mentioned before that Bryston uses the hobbyist Raspberry Pi board in two of their products. One is a basic streamer and the other is a streamer / DAC.

I just opened the lastest December 2023 TAS and learned that Boulder now uses the Raspberry Pi 4B in their $9250 USD streamer / DAC / preamp.

Will Raspberry Pi 4 boards remain available as product of Raspberry Pi 5 ramps up? I'm sure it will be an easy mid product cycle swap if Boulder and others need to switch to the newer board.

Any other 'high-end' streamer products using the hobbyist Raspberry Pi board within? I find it interesting that some audiophiles remain skeptical of the cheap Raspberry Pi board as a streamer even though it is used in some 'high-end' brands.
