Also, would be nice if you add a little information about your system, what components you using, etc

So lets have some fun here as community forum is not only about 'serious' things, issues and technical stuff

I really like my music and I am kind of lucky as my missus is into music too. So we have a kind of same hobby
Saying kind of as I love the technical background of whole HiFi, where she does not care what or how  For her its just have to sound good   
I have been into this HiFi conquest for about 25 years and I still can not see the end : Computers is another big part of my life as I live with these bloody thing from late 80's 

So my passion to music, hifi and computers brings me to moOde. I have tried all systems out there but this sounds the best. I use RPi from the day when they released the first model and still love it. I use a few, each for different purpose. So when the quality I2S DAC boards for RPi started to emerge started to emerge it was a time to search for some. 
I wanted an simple, nice looking and good sounding unit. So after a deep research and a lot of reading I came across this french company Audiophonics and one product just catch my eyes. 
It was the RaspDAC kit what I choose. It has the great I-Sabre V3 ES9023 TXCO DAC which sounds so good to my ears.
So this little thing with RPi is my main streamer in my system. It also have an nice power management on board so the system can be turned on by pressing a button and safely turned OFF with it too. All works nicely with a few simple scripts which are easily installed on moOde. Also a nice informative OLED screen on the front. Another scripts needed for this to make it work but all is covered thanks to great developers and nice forums communities.
Also a good separate LPSU is used for this to provide nice stable supply and more important, its quiet :

I have another RPi running moOde. This is hidden inside of this Roberts R747 radio from back in 1990. Looks like ordinary radio but thanks to moOde I can listen to my favourite online radios, my Tidal streams or music from local network share
