  Dear Herbert,
  
  This is not a big problem. You can use our money-back guarantee: http://www.hifiberry.com/shop/money-back-guarantee/
  
  Do you live in the EU? In this case, please return to HiFiBerry Germany, otherwise send it back to our Swiss office.
  We will refund it when we receive it. Just place a new order for the correct DAC.
  
  Best regards
  Daniel

  Hi Herbert,
  
  The DAC is not designed to connect to the Raspberry Pi B+. Unfortunately there is no easy way to do this.

  Dear Herbert,
  
  this would need soldering cables and most likely compiling a new Linux kernel. We can't support this. If shipping back is to expensive, you can try to find an old Raspberry Pi model B somewhere. This will be the best way to get this running.
