But, the sound is very soft. The web GUI says 100, but it is hardly audible with headphones.
Any ideas?

AQ Dragonfly works with Raspyfi10beta (https://sourceforge.net/projects/raspyfibeta/files/raspyfi.10betatest.rar/download).

Could it be that the AQ Dragonfly only accepts 24bit? If yes, how can I feed my df with 24bit starting from a 16bit source?

my dragonfly is not flying at allCry. I am close but at this point I have no clue what to do next, except ask you guys.

tl;dr
I have a metallic jitter which is louder than the actual music independent on the file I play (mp3, flac, etc.). This annoying sound is always present (not only at the beginning of a file).

What I did so far:

* Installed the newest berryboot and installed both, raspify and xbian.

* Applied the usb-audio-fix: http://www.raspyfi.com/raspber.....audio-fix/

* Checked performance of dragonfly on my notebook running ubuntu. Works perfectly.

* Connect to pi via SSH and installed gmpc on notebook. Connection is fine and working.

My pi is powered via a usb hub and an additional psu. when I measure the voltage over tp1 and tp2 its always around 5.02V while everything is connected:

external hdd -> usb hub -> PI -> Dragonfly <- simple psu (normally I charge my phone with it) using a Y usb cable.

Dragonfly -> nad c325bee or headphones.

Independent on the audio file type or source (sd card, external hdd, usb stick) I always have a metallic jitter during playback.

I do not know if the usb-audio-fix worked (it did not take 20mins, more about 2mins).

Another thing which puzzles me is why hw_params always shows 24bit depth (also with format "44100:16:2"). Maybe this is the problem but I have no idea how to change this.

Any help is appreciated, THX a lot!

Sadly I still get the odd click especially on higher res tracks, will this be addressed in the next version of raspyfi?

Bye and thanks for the feedback!

Could you please also post the name of the mixer bars (if there are) if you do

sudo alsamixer

? Thanks!

Thanks very much, the perfect little player now, just gonna have to wait for the shortcrust pi case to come out and i think it will be perfection! Also any little leftover pops i did get are gone when unplugging the ethernet cable, so next thing for me is to try a wireless nano card that also uses the usb and see if that allows me to control raspyfi without the pops caused by usingthe cable (until possibly a fix is found).

This should solve the aforementioned problems...

ti do un indizio, con il Dragonfly per qualche motivo il flusso di dati gli arriva a 24 bit, cosa che il pi non riesce a gestire... Se riesci a capire come fargli arrivare dati a 16 bit abbiamo risolto... Fammi sapere!

anch'io da giorni sto cercando di far funzionare il mio DAC AudioQuest Dragonfly connesso al Raspberry ma senza nessun risultato.
Escono fuori soltanto dei clip e rumori vari.
Se riesco a risolvere vi faccio sapere.

As i told you, it seems that it uses by default 24 bits communication, so my goal is to detect where this command is stored, and change it in 16 bit mode.
By the way, if the foundation can solve the tedious usb problems, this issue will no more affect your music. Just be patient, I'll sort it out!

A post is coming also to show the complete situation, since I think lot of people will be interested in using the Audioquest Dragonfly with RaspyFi!
