[QUOTE="croak, post: 1033852, member: 361"] Pi is a nice affordable solution for rendering locally stored files and for some users it?s good enough. Pi however has noise on its busses and substandard clocks and psu can be improved. Hats help performance. The web control interfaces suck in varying degrees. On top of that you can not make a pi sign in to Tidal or Qobuz as a standalone unit. You always need to have another computer do that. Unless you pay for Roon or a volumio premium subscription. Actually, even then the core is signing in. In an A-B comparison even a tweaked up Pi doesn?t hold a candle sonically. You get what you pay for. [/QUOTE]
