Hi,
I'm new here and in the world of DIY audio system.
My current setup is an Atoll IN80SE amplifier, A pair of JBL TLX16 speakers, A Cambridge DACmagic 100, a YAMAHA CDX 397MK2 CD player and a RPI4 for digital music.
I would like to make my setup a bit more DIY and replace my current DAC to a better sound quality with better components solution.
But i don't really understand the world of I2S, HAT, USB signature, Digione...
Where can i learn a bit more about RPI DIY system ? Maybe with explanations about which role have each cards.
Which cards are needed to replace my current DAC ?
As example : I recently discover the sparky bundle (kali reclocker, allo piano 2.1, galvanic isolator....) The bundle seems to be appreciate by many pple. But:
Does RPI audio system are good enought compare too dedicated solution ?
Will i gain in sound quality compare to my cambridge current DAC ?
Does the kali reclocker, allo galvanic isolator, the piano 2.1 44/48 are compatbile with my RPI4 ?
Is it necessary to add the volt amp if the piano card is connected to my Atoll amplifier ?
Is it necessary to add the Capacitance Multiplier if i don't use the volt amp ?
Thanks you for your answers and clarifications
