I can vouch for this R2r board! It’s great. I had the other board mentioned above and couldn’t warm up to it. The inverting output character caused a real mixed up soundstage.

Used with raspberry pi 3+ Volumio, and the battery supply from iancanada. Makes for a fantastic setup that doesn’t break the bank.

Received yesterday - thanks!

I plan to upgrade the power supply, i2s signals and clocks with (likely) some Ian Canada parts, but even connecting it directly to a Pi3 to test with a new Volumio install, it sounds pretty good with that R2R smoothness. I expect the clarity and soundstage to sharpen up when I upgrade the PS and clocks.
 
Just added the shieldpi v3 which has a 3.3v low noise output and the fifopi ma v1.5 reclocker (it takes the 3.3v input)to my stack, sounding even better. to me this is a true giant killer setup that is good enough to be anyone's endgame dac

regarding mood settings I had to change the i2s driver to hifiberry dac+ pro instead of generic i2s device to get audio with the fifopi ma reclocker
