Hey folks, nice to meet you guys, this is my first post

 

so you know I am a newbie. I did some research and came up with this entry level setup for music only:

 

Moode Audio Player for Raspberry Pi or HiFiBerry DAC

 

 

Sony STRDH130 2 Channel Stereo Receiver (Black)

Amazon.com: Sony STRDH130 2 Channel Stereo Receiver (Black): Electronics

135W/ch

 

 

Pioneer SP-FS52-LR Andrew Jones Designed Floor standing Loudspeaker (each)

Pioneer 5-1/4" Floor Speaker (Each) Black SP-FS52 - Best Buy

max 130w

 

Does this work for some basic music, like piano and songs?

 

Appreciate your feedback

Because you say "or", I'll point out that the Pi and the HifiBerry DAC are not mutually exclusive and because the the receiver does not have HDMI in you will have to provide it with an analogue signal. The headphone jack on the Pi can provide this signal but it is considered very low quality. You should probably plan on buying a DAC for your Pi (such as the HifiBerry) if your budget allows.

Just one other thing , when a speaker says max 130 watts it means clean unclipped ( not distorted watts). More speakers are fried from loud under powered amplifiers than over. Also if your amp is a class D amp if it says 130 or whatever read at what distortion figure.
