DonGui Hi all, I've only seen a couple of posts speaking about pi 2 and hires files handling (like 192/24). The posts were pretty positive, but I wondered if we could get a more detailed confirmation that pi 2 is ok with hires files, unlike pi 1. Anyone willing to share some input ? DonGui
jazzaj I read all type of hires files on my RSPI2 : 24/44.1, 24/96, 24/192 even some 24/176 without any problems and a great pleasure !
hondagx35 Hi, my setup - RP2 - HifiBerry DAC+ - wired network - music library on NAS plays up to 24/192 without any problems. highres.jpg (162.24 KiB) Viewed 2634 times Frank
nopphong I reply to confirm that Pi 2 work really good with hires files. All 24/96 24/192 and dsd64 playing really good without stutter. It work much better than pi b+.
naggie21 Hi, I'm new here, and made a profile based on this post. An RPi 2 and a HifiBerry sonud like a really cheap way to get hires audio on my old stereo system. But is there a case, that can hold both the Pi and the HifiBerry in one? The idea is to hook i up with my old trusty Denon PMA-1315r with a set of Dali Suite 2.8 speakers. EDIT: And by the way, does a RPi 2 with the HifiBerry DAC+ need a 2 Amp PSU or is a 1 Amp enough?
neanderthaler And by the way, does a RPi 2 with the HifiBerry DAC+ need a 2 Amp PSU or is a 1 Amp enough? 1A*5V gives poor 5W. This could work, but don't blame the Pi. The more the better: Take 2A.
BrianH When using files from a USB stick up to 24/192 Pi2 was fine. Today I put a NAS together and over WiFI, WiPi dongle, anything larger than 16/44 stutters. Substituting an ethernet cable Pi 2 is happy again. Are there any settings for WiFi I can alter to improve performance? I have trailed an ethernet cable across the room to test but it isn't really practicable I have tried doubling RSIZE and WSIZE, slightly better but not eliminated
Aquarius naggie21 wroteBut is there a case, that can hold both the Pi and the HifiBerry in one?I used a Rasberry Pi case designed for use with a PiFace adon card. The HifiBerry Digi fit in nicely (the case was tall enough) but of course I had to drill/cut holes for the outputs.
maxonline duffbeer wrotePi2 plays 352.8kHz DSF files without any problem, through Wired LAN, from SMB share. For me even through WLan, at least from NFS share
KHatfull I have a B+ and IQAudio Pi-DAC+....can do 24/196 flawlessly wired, not so much so wireless. I exchanged emails with Gordon IQAudio about the Pi2. He was of the opinion that 24/192 still needs a wired connection even with the Pi2. He's just not keen on wireless hi-res. That's good enough for me. I was prepared to upgrade... I'm going to pass on the Pi2 unless there's something else nifty it can do with RuneAudio.
