Raspberry Pi and Hifiberry DAC Pro - Chanh - 30-Sep-2016
Recently I revisit back my ARMs server, RPi 2, and it is to my pleasant surprise that this little combo sounded fantastic! Especially when we spent our hard earn investment into a $25k Accuphase DAC-950, $5k for computer server, .....!
The overall cost is no more than $200, may be you guys should have ago?
Enjoy the journey!

Thi Picore-Player is pretty darn good! I still have your old RPi 1 here with me, may just be using that with picoreplayer, and the server as LMS to a switch power by JZolla.
Btw - I have just bought this switch for my BBB and RPi as squeezelite player only to DDDAC and Accuphase DC-950.

Any thought of this Agent Kith?!

Run "uname -a" and see if there is the word RT in there.

- support jumbo frames
- DC input
- metal case
Since you are only connecting BBB to RPi you don't need a switch (forwards data from 1 port to another port). You can use a cross-over cable and connect the two directly (this way you reduce a potential speed issue but you lose the isolation).
If you want isolation, one thing you can potentially try is this (I havn't tried this myself yet).
