SparkSpark Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 Hello, I currently use the RPI3 + DigiBerry Digi+ and JRMC on Raspbian I'm tempted to upgrade to the Allo DigiOne, but not sure if it would work with Raspbian and JRMC, everyone seems to get it to work with Volumino or Roon. I'm really not familiar with Linux and need 'dumb instructions' to get it to work - I did manage to get JRMC to work since they have such excellent forum/support - this doesn't seem to be the case with Allo...? Please share from your experience, Thank you! Link to comment
Popular Post SparkSpark Posted July 12, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted July 12, 2017 OK, This might be useful to others... I got the Allo Digione, very nice piece of kit, sounds noticeably better than the Hifiberry digi+ it replaced. The rest of my system is: RPI3 + Allo Digione -> BNC -> Schiit Yggy -> Schiit Freya -> ATI 6002 -> ML electromotions + REL S/3 I thought the Yggy is very good with reclockign but I guess improving teh upstream especialy for relatively little money is worth it! Also the ALLO case quality is impressive, by far the best RPI case I've seen. If like me, you've installed the Allo Digione and surprised it doesn't show up in Raspbian, here's what you need to do: You basically need to enable the drivers in Raspbian, assuming your distribution is updated - sudo apt-get dist-upgrade You need to edit the config.txt file in your /boot folder - you can't do it with the Pi running, it's protected - so what I've done is remove the memory card, open it in a mac (OSX is based on Lunix, windows won't work) and add teh following line: dtoverlay=allo-digione Reboot, run sudo apt-get dist -upgrade again just to be safe and reboot again That's it! The digione will show in JRMC's output options and you are welcome to sonic bliss! Good luck! jventer and rruffin 2 Link to comment

I have not created a networked system yet, but only have my computer (MBP) connected directly to the DAC. Thanks... I'm using Jriver, installed on a PC server in anotehr room and on teh RPI - works great and with the Jremote on the iphone very convenint. Link to comment
SparkSpark Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Hi, FWIW I also moves from Hifiberry to the DigiOne and feel it's much better, I also have a Tomanek LPSU! I connect the DigiOne via BNC to a Schiit Yggy and it's sonic bilss! Link to comment
