One more thing to note. After splitting the power and powering the screen directly, it solved my low voltage warning but returned after a few days. Consulting the all-knowing internet I found that there is a poly fuse inline with the power inlet for the raspberry pi. I decided to reverse power...

Close Bud. It was 9 guys. Stupidly heavy stuff but I am still in awe of them every time I turn my system and play a track. I listen at mid-level. I like loud sometimes and other times I prefer just a lower level. My average is mid-level though. I also guess that's subjective. I say mid-level...

Same as mine :)

I 100% agree with you on the EQ thing. I EQ the hell out of my system with minidsp, but I have it seriously fine-tuned now. I bet you doing most of your EQ below 1k? And also cutting quite a bit around the 500-600hz mark to open up the vocals? I agree that EQ is not ideal, but I am currently...

This is a very interesting topic for me. I have 2x 15 inch tannoy monitor golds per side in a double autograph cabinet built by the late Chris Templar. I run them on DIY EL34 amps I built and I'm astonished everytime by how good it sounds and I have more than enough headroom. I have tried...

Ive always wanted to try the gr research stuff. Especially fhe encore bookshelf. Please share your thoughts on the kit and the sound.

I just finished another 2 of these. I robbed the transformer from my first build and the HT board as I didn't have spare TIP 50's at home. but here are some pics of the latest builds and next to the original minus the transformer and psu board.

I think I have solved my low voltage warning issue. I will have to do more tests to confirm but the initial results are promising. While everything was working fine that annoying low voltage lightning bolt on the screen was bugging me as I knew my PSU was capable of delivering the power needed...

Im allergic to switch mode psu. I always prefer linear. Next up is to re-case the minidsp with lps.

Something i forgot to mention i will be adding a micro sd to micro sd extenion cable that its easy to change the sd card an try diffetent operating systems

Model 2b will work fine for this application. I used it before with no issues. Just dont think it has built in wireless that i use.

Im also using an older pi. I think this is a V3 new one is v4. Im using official raspberry pi 7inch touch sceen. Its supported by ropiee for roon

While there is nothing new and special about using raspberry pi's to stream music and all kinds of other handy things, I decided I was gonna build myself a streamer/roon edpoint using one of the many raspberry pi's I have at home. The goal was to build a streamer out of the parts I had lying...

Something I have used very successfully in the past to eliminate the joint lines is body putty used on cars for panel beating. Works like a charm. Also seals the MDF edges.
