No change. This is because DAC has built-in reclocking. The I2S source does not change performance.Can you also re-do all measurements with USB?
Measures the same?

You can pre-order it and save 20%:

I will start a new thread it about it soon.
Hi,Thanks for your prompt response, I'll install Volumio and play a little bit (I don't have Roon right now). I'll use one of my USB crappy DACs in the meantime until I decide if I want the case or build mine (need to build on top a XLR switcher, etc.), pot, power supply, etc.

Hi,
I tried to buy the DAC + CASE today but it's back-ordered. When are you going to have more?
Also, I do have a 9VCC/3A power supply so I don't need a new one. Can you tell me the tip size and polarity?
Thanks in advance,
Javier
I can not find message with whom asked about power supply for Raspberry Pi 4, however I switched from the CUI SDI24-9-U-P5 to the CUI SDI50-9-U-P5
The SDI24 is 9 volt 2.5 amp (22.5 watts) and the SDI50 is 9 volt 5 amp (45 watts)

They now have a newer SDI36 that is 9v 3.3 amp which would most likely be closer to adequate amp draw if using Pi4 with a USB CD-Player/Music Drive/etc..
The 5 amp model also has a light on the power brick to let you know it is powered. (I disabled the LED activity lights through MoOde so it helps to see if PecanPi is on/powered.)
On the new boards which I am about to start shipping soon, there is still no RCA connector. However, there are wiring terminals that allow you to add RCA externally or have an RCA equivalent.Why did they omit the RCA out on the latest version? I would have immediately bought a couple of them but I need XLR *and* RCA out on it. Anyone know any plans they might have to include the RCA out as well?
I have many customers that want to wire to the board and not have it flush against the panel with these connectors you can have the boards somewhere inside your enclosure and easily wire to panel mount connectors, be it XLR or RCA. Additional bonus...no soldering needed.What is the original purpose of the terminal blocks, to have a 2nd XLR out? I see there are 3-pins in there as well for a differential signal
Yes, they can output at the same time. They are actually the output of the same buffer which has an output impedance of 0.05ohm for each leg. So absolutely no issue with driving multiple loads.Are the outputs buffered and can the main XLR and the out on the green terminal output at the same time?

No differences outside of adding the green terminal blocks.Any other differences between the original version and the new one?
No. This model was just not selling.@orchardaudio
as far as I can see on the site - "PecanPi USB/SPDIF - This product is discontinued". Is there any new model ?
Aww. I thought it was a great product though, although the price did increase after I bought mine. Hope you'll have another competitive DAC product out some dayNo. This model was just not selling.
I think I would a total of 5 or 6 in a year.
Any measurements of the streamer versions’ output using WiFi input?No. This model was just not selling.

The Streamers are flying off the shelf though.
