RE: Show your audio system - Baisey - 07-28-2020 Hello Introducing Take-awayFi. My attempt at a moode audio player. Specs Rpi 3 model B DAC - ESI U24 XL (USB) Amp - Nad 3150 Speakers - KEF Coda II Adafruit OLED screen (using mpd_oled) On/ off button with LED. Housed in a food take away container (spared no expense! ). The amp and the speakers are over 30 years old now. My Uncle gave them to me a long time ago and I didn't have the heart to get rid of them. Then i stummbled across Moode afew years ago. I could finally connect to my old system with new technologies and enjoy music again. My tiny, mono kitchen radio was doing nothing for me. Enjoy the pics.

RE: Show your audio system - sheridat - 10-28-2020 My partner and I are at odds on the subject of hi fi. We have had systems before but the eternal muttering about the deck, cd player, amp, speakers, stands etc looking out of place wears me down. I agreed that in our new home, we would just have a radio on the sideboard in our second living room. I bought a non working Pure Evoke DAB radio for £21 from the UK version of ebay. The virtue of that particular radio is that it comes with a satellite speaker. Simply unscrewed the back and inserted a Pi W with a Justboom AMP Hat (Zero) and a 250gb USB stick. Looks like a radio but has all the flexibility of MoOde and the sound is fine. [attachment=1827] Now that a precedent has been set, I am monitoring ebay for a cheap pair of Ruark MR1 speakers in soft grey. Those speakers are highly rated https://www.ruarkaudio.com/products/mr1-bluetooth-speaker-system RE: Show your audio system - Peziman - 01-13-2021 There is still a lot of work to do but the results are promising. - raspberry Pi 3 - Hifiberry Amp2 - RTL2832U Stick for Dab+ and FM radio - many buttons (with separate python script for indicate short and long press action and so on) - all parts printed by my self At the moment I have some software problems and I also have to make the top cover.

Thanks so much for your entry into the "Show your audio system" thread. Informative content and step-by-step guide link. Planning on upgrading my equipment with a DDDAC1794 12V PS so that I can listen to it. Best, energyi Player for the bedroom - Britracer - 02-03-2021 I decided I needed something small and simple for the bedroom. RPi Zero W with Hifiberry mini Amp I built a couple of speakers from an old pair of computer speakers I used a bunch of scrap plywood and created the "tiger" striped wood by cutting ⅝ strips and gluing them together to form a board There are 4 radio presets - using simple iron rivets as the buttons The knob is from an old JVC cd/radio The nice thing is that by adding a couple of LEDs I can indicate that the unit is playing - The LEDs are driven from the GPIO using the lcdup.py file and adding detection for when the mpc shows playing The little amp is loud enough with the little 4 Ohm speakers Power supply is an old Blackberry charger [attachment=2099] [attachment=2100] RE: Player for the bedroom - DRONE7 - 02-03-2021 (02-03-2021, 04:19 AM)Britracer Wrote: I decided I needed something small and simple for the bedroom. A very apt build for a bedroom I would paint the cabinets/enclosures to match something in the Albert image.... perhaps even each a different colour. How cold is it there this time of year ? RE: Show your audio system - DRONE7 - 05-13-2021 Went to the 'Tip Shop" (Tip being "Refuse" in our jargon.... =junk=donated=cast off/adrift=thrown away !! ) Found this pair of Kenwood powered speakers.....old school...no surface mount components !!...all discrete...Big Heavy Aluminium (Aluminum to you lot) base for heat-sinking the amplifier chip.... $2.50 pair 2-Way with the low-mid driver surround totally munted but the tweeter in 'top' condition !! I had a pair of Wharfedale Modulus Cubes and with a bit of Samurai-tin-snipping their drivers were made to fit... $ 5.00/pair with a cheap used DAC...$5.00 Still running in but this pair and the DAC make for a fine 'kitchen-system' all up total $12.50 (US equivalent) https://jmty.jp/gifu/sale-ele/article-fp67u https://www.hifidatabase.com/Wharfedale_Modus_Cube_479.php https://hifimediy.com/product/sabre-dac-uae23/ |
