Allo Boss2 with Volumio


Recommended Posts

Dear All,

 

I acquired last week the brand new Allo Boss2. Unfortunately, Allo announced that they prefer Moode audio for the DAC, while still emphasizing that it would be – of course – compatible with Volumio. I tried Moode for a week, but would like to use the Boss2 over Volumio, as my other 2 Boss 1.2.

So, I flashed Volumio in its latest version on a micro SD, but the Boss2 is not listed in the I2S devices. When I try to play, I get the famous hm:2,0 error. Over SSH I see that the dtbo file "allo-boss2-dac-audio.dtbo" is missing.

 

After looking for more info, I got a draft manuel over the diyaudio forum: https://www.diyaudio.com/forums/attachments/vendor-s-bazaar/927422d1614589636-shanti-dual-lps-5v-3a-5v-1-5a-boss2_manual-pdf 1

In there, I see mention of Volumio and of the dtbo file called “allo-boss2-dac-audio.dtbo”. I mention from the manual “Boss2 dac Driver is included on RPI 5.4.77 kernel onwards. In some players (Moode and more) Boss2 is configurable through GUI.”

 

Could you help me on this? How can I add this dtbo file to make Volumio work with the Boss2?

 

Thanks in advance!

Well, I received my Allo Boss2 earlier this week and I am totally impressed with the quality of the sound that comes from this box. I have the Nirvana PSU with it, but I have changed to the Volumio setup (I ordered with the DietPi+Allo Gui) that I downloaded per the link above. Unfortunately, this setup doesn't use the GUI screen and buttons on the metal box and I have not yet figured out how I can use the Comfast Wifi dongle. Overall, the quality improved immediately over the previous setup of a RPi4 with the Allo Boss v1.2 that I run with both a standard PSU but tested also with a usb-c battery pack to reduce any power clutter. The detail and soundstage-precision of the Boss2 are a lot better than the Boss v1.2. So much that I decided to replace my speakers as well (Amp = NAD C352, speakers KEF iQ5, now replaced with KEF LS50). I love the natural sound that comes out of this setup, even while my speakers are not yet optimal placed. I stream from iPad, iPhone and MacbookPro, using Volumio radio-stations, Spotify Connect and Apple Music. Very happy listening hours this week!

 

Question: can I use the AlloBoss2 build in GUI and how to setup the Wifi dongle?

After the fresh installation ,We need to install OLED manually.

 

Please login to volumio through ssh and follow the below steps

 

cd /opt/

wget http://3.230.113.73:9011/Allocom/Boss2/boss2_oled.tar.gz

tar -xzvf boss2_oled.tar.gz

cd boss2_oled

./install_boss2_oled.sh 

 

And reboot the player

 

Comfast WiFi dongle by default it will detect in volumio.

 

Just connect Comfast WiFi dongle to Boss 2 and configure your WiFi network through volumio GUI.

Hello, I would like to use the OLED but I need more specific instructions about how to login to volumio through ssh.

I would like also ask about 

HV-EN - High Voltage Enable/Disable  RMS (1.7 or 2.0 Volt) voltage setting.

ON  2.0 Volt

OFF  1.7 Volt

Is the default value 2.0 or 1.7?

Many Thanks

I noticed that the output seems to be low because I have to put the volume pot of my integrated amp about at 75% to have enought sound, please inform. Thanks

Please login to volumio through ssh and check alsamixer volume is 100% or not. If not ,then make it 100% (Enter below command and use arrow keys to move the curser and increase the volume) and check.

 

alsamixer

I am using the procedure as described, but I run in a permission denied situation, so it cannot write to the boss2_oled.tar.gz

Is this correct?

Thanks for helping me to resolve this. best regards, Gerard

Thanks, how to change it to 2.0Vrms? Thanks

I have tried from here but arrows don't change the parameter

terminal.jpeg.9dc0a4df20ea01674d825d66155543a2.jpeg

Use <- or ->  (forward and backword )arrow key to select and use  up and down arrow keys for increasing or decreasing.

 

Make master and Digital volume 100%

Hi, I’m a noob so please bear with my novice questions, thanks.

 

I’m looking to buy the Boss2 for my RPI4. So it will need two power sources, right?

 

Is Nirvana enough to power both the Pi and the hat?

 

Thanks!

To Boss 2 player (RPI4+Boss 2), we can give either two or single power.

 

For single power J18 jumper on Boss 2 board must be closed . Power should be connected through back panel DC In connector . - Yes ,You can use Nirvana power supply.

 

For dual psu J18 jumper should be open.

Hi, thanks for your reply.

 

Where is the J18 jumper located on the board? I’m looking at the hat’s photo and cannot see it.

Are there advantages/disadvantages on having one or two power sources?

 

Also, before I was aware of Boss2, I was looking at Boss 1.2 vs DigiOne and had decided to go with the DigiOne option and just connect it to my AV receiver via coaxial. 

My point is: will the sound quality be better with Boss2 via RCA or with DigiOne via coaxial?
