Perhaps some audio maker can donate a decent CM5 based board for me to play with and I can attempt to see what tweaks are available in software. Big Grin
I have yet to come across a CM5 based audio player. 

There is a CM5 development kit
https://au.element14.com/raspberry-pi/sc...dp/4575935
(No idea of differences between EU, US, UK etc versions) 
Trying to understand why the CM5 is better than the Pi5.  Is the limitation the existing I/O board? And should be replaced by a dedicated audiophile board?
