You can get sound out of RPi USB ports, but I believe it is noisy as it shares its 'bus' with other processes. I think the new RPi 4 board has corrected this problem. I would go for a DAC that also has Coax and Optical input

Thanks. I've got an old modded Perpetual Technologies P3A with a real power supply that I can hook up with anything except USB. It was my impression that the asynchronous re-clocking was the cat's meow and USB was that best at that.
I need to try that with one of my Touches to compare to the Boss. It seems like the Allo Digi would be the choice for an RPi to a DAC. Seriously, the Allo Boss sounds awfully good. Or maybe it just gets better after every beer.

I use the Digione Board for my main system into my Teac DAC.. I take the Boss when I'm traveling or out to the back deck.I've also looked at the Digione Signature, but I think I'm going to wait until Allo comes up with a little neater solution to the two power supply thing. I think there is a lot of room for improvement.

Thanks. I decided to just pull the trigger on the Digione Sig model with Allo's dual power supply. I'll be curious to A-B it with a couple DACs that I've got vs the Boss.
Will I be amazed?
