PiFi DAC+ v2.0 / Raspi2B / current Volumio

[Arne]

Hi, Is the PiFi DAC+ v2.0 compatible and working OK with the Raspi2B and current version of Volumio? I have seen very old posts that indicate complex software workarounds are required. I’m hoping that is no longer required. Thanks

Did you already buy one? If not, save yourself the bother and get something that’s guaranteed to work like the Hifiberry.

As you say there were lots of software and pin out workarounds for the older version, there’s nothing about the v2 on these boards.

EDIT
Except there is this

PiFi china clones of the HifiBerry

I bought this PiFi DAC+ v2.0 from AliExpress https://www.aliexpress.com/snapshot/0.html?spm=a2g0s.9042647.0.0.6d374c4d3EtoDb&orderId=8132811645466300&productId=4001341312450 I’m using it with a Raspberry Pi 4B (2GB). When I booted it up I2S DAC was automatically selected (ON), and the DAC Model was HiFiBerry Amp2. [image] It seems to work fine. I’ll have to dig a bit more into whether there is some tuning that is necessary.

Thanks SimonE, It looks like it works so I will give it a try. Thanks again
