Re: [SlimDevices: Audiophiles] MEASUREMENTS: Raspberry Pi 3 as USB Streamer (+ CRAAP config & TIDAL/MQA arrives)
Not related to CRAAP, or sound quality, but for a Pi3 I would generally recommend a 2A PSU for best stability (the CPU alone can pull nearly 1A). Though as you note, this one is lightly loaded for streaming you may have issues during e.g. LMS rescans or reencode to mp3, or whatever.

Hi Archimago, my newest Pi is a Model 1 B+ so I guess I already have the CRAAP configuration. Thanks.

Thanks Archimago. I'm usually somewhat to the left of you on the subjective-objective scale, but anyone putting out measurements gets a thumbs up from me!

I hope you are well and keep up your writings in 2017, Cheers! Here are the first screenies about what software MQA defoding shows. No magic, just MidRes PCM ;) Funny what people attribute to MQA from reading the first Tidal listening reports... Transporter (modded) -> RG142 -> Avantgarde Acoustic based 500VA monoblocks -> Sommer SPK240 -> self-made speakers Wombat's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4113 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=106756 ___ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles

Raspberry Pi 3 works great thru USB as a Squeezebox replacement with piCorePlayer of course... Some objective stuff... Some suggested underclocking config to "sound better" :-). Maybe some daring audiophile might want to do a blind test between my CRAAP config compare to... Oh... The microRendu? TIDA/MQA goes software decode as expected... And more CES 2017 hi-res audio nonsense. Hope everyone having a great start to 2017!
