What Ian Canada bits do you have that might help connect a Pi to an I2S DAC? A full blown retail 2024 solution weighs in at over $1000, thought I might try here for a more basic setup first.
Good morning Bas.. Yes I have a DDDAC currently receiving the data via a WaveIO USB interface.
Am initially just looking for some kind of reclocker or fifo with a row of u.fl connectors that can feed the DAC directly.

Hi Thommy,
That is what I used to have. All you need in lieu of the WaveIo. Is a reclocker like this:
FifoPiMa V1.5. or FifoPi Q7
#46A. DDDAC U.FL to connect to you dddac in a professional way
And 3 coax cables: https://iancanada.ca/products/coaxial-cables-and-connectors
This is how I have connected the FIFOPI Q7 (Did not know at the time that FifoPi Ma would have been sufficient)
And a 3,3v power supply for the FifoPi Ma/Q7 whichever you want.
The cost effective and space saving choice here is a 3,3v Tentlabs shunt reg:
Or any of IanCanada's offerings. I got the UcConditioner MkII/Pro 3.3V with #32B LinearPi MkII Solo.
And a Raspberry pi ofcourse. Plus another 5V supply for that. But if I'm not mistaken you probably have that for the WaveIo already.
Unfortunately I don't have any surplus to sell. But this is the stuff you could look for.

I have a surplus receiverpi

it is not really needed in your simple configuration but could add flexibility/inputs
