DAC Mini Hat PCM5122 Audio Card for Raspberry Pi 5/4/3B+/Zero 2W, 384kHz/32bit HiFi Sound Shield with RCA & 3.5mm Output

I have an older receiver that I wanted to add AirPlay support to. I had an old Raspberry Pi 3 lying around and added this DAC to it and installed RAudio. It works great, and sounds great. It was both higher quality and cheaper than the Arylic streaming device I had tried previously.

Sounds great, but lacks instructions. Modifications to the OS must be made to get the RPi to recognize the card.

Absolutely impressive.. I must say!! And not because it and the full sized brother, both manufactured by Innomaker, are priced way below what they should be for the quality, but because I’m ACTUALLY impressed with the quality. It also helps that I can build a genuinely HiFi wireless media player using just this guy and Raspberry Pi 5. Or you could make a version with the easily concealable Pi ZERO 2 W and the Innomaker DAC MINI, birthing a bite size version of a HiFi audio receiver that you can also wirelessly stream your audio to from any devices you allow. The money isn’t worth nearly as much as what you are getting in return. Would definitely buy again over other similar products.

I used these for a Volumio setup in my stereo. They worked very well with excellent audio output.

Of all the Raspberry Pi units I now have (11 total), I have had the most fun with this little unit. Coupled with the Argon Pod cases (including the unit that gives me the Ethernet port) and the Innomaker mini DAC unit, this little system plays all my music files and old B & W TV shows with VLC (and even 720p movies without subtitles). Like everyone else, I wish it had 1MG of RAM instead of 512K but the "cuteness" factor of this little system is a 10. I can even run RPI Connect on it, but it's not good for browsing the Internet.

Bought this and a rpi0 for my office sound setup. Handles everything I throw at it. I'm no audiophile but it seems like a great little DAC. I'm docking a star for setup with the RPi, as the documentation was less than clear and could be improved. That said, if you're building odd little devices out of RPi's, you should be capable of figuring this guy out.

You have to get the plugs just right and if you bump it forget it - it'll disconnect from the pi and you have to restart to get it back. There are other options that are more reliable.

Difficult to find information on which driver to use, and it's a bit staticky unless you wrap the whole board in foil tape (use a layer of packaging or capton tape first to prevent shorts) It does play music though and once I sorted the noise issues the audio quality is pretty good

結論：Linuxでmusic-serverを構築できるなら、良い買い物です。 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 安価にも関わらず、分解能は高いし、中音域が豊かで肉感がある。 今、jazzの女性vocalを聴いているが、耳元で囁かれているようで色っぽい。空間表現も豊かだ。 小規模のオケやpiano-trioも良いいですよ。 ------ 今回の構成など------------------------------------- 手元に使わなくなったpi3があったので、最小限のシステム構築を目指して、pi-liteで嫌いなdebianを32GBのSD-cardにinstallして、自家製のmpd-severを構築し、安価な真空管アンプで鳴らしている。音のために、余分なservice（daemon）やアプリは削除。恐れ入ったことに、pi3だとこのcardをつけても、USB電源で起動する。これのような劣悪な条件でも、素晴らしい音がする。 最良の条件を探すため、mpdの設定を少し弄る必要はありそうです。 明日届く、AC電源とスピーカー台が楽しみ。 pi4でも試そうとしたが、USB電源では起動せず断念。 pi5は、このような用途にはもったいなくて使えない。 ------------構成------------------------------- Hard : pi3（32G: SD-card)---PCM5122(card)----安い真空管AMP---speaker（富士通テンの古いやつ） ------------------------------------------------- Soft : pi-lite(Debian：head-lesss)__mpd-server__ncmpcc(mpd-client)

Utiliser pour créer un AirPlay avec un Rpi zéro.

Carte livrée avec ses vis et écrous permettant une superposition au dessus du Pi et l'ajout d'une carte ultérieure. La carte semble de bonne qualité mais impossible de la faire fonctionner avec un raspberry Pi4 B sous LibrElec en ajoutant la ligne adéquate au /flash/config.txt dtoverlay=allo-boss-dac-pcm512x-audio Quelle déception. Peut-être l'autre DAC fonctionnera t il ? Réponse par mail à innomaker en 24h. Changement de carte et impeccable.

Got this for a setup of Volumio, works perfectly with Pi 4 (and 5 but seemed a bit much for a headless music player!), Volumio has the driver built in so was just a case of selecting the hat and away you go.
