Is a DAC necessary for 3.5mm output running Volumio?

I’m running Volumio on a raspberry pi. I’ve got a 3.5mm cable running to a nice speaker. Is the source audio signal good enough? Do I need a DAC?

Cheers!

Hi,

You do not need a DAC for the 3,5mm jack for the first tests.
Sound will be better with a DAC - even with one of the cheaper…
