None

Hi everyone,

i was about to buy a DAC+ for the Raspberry Pi 2 and a TA2021 Amplifier, when i realized that there is a solution out-of-the-box: the AMP+.

Is the any noticeable difference in sounding between these two solutions?

Thanks!

"Sounding" is a very subjective matter. Nobody can tell you what would sound better for you. However, almost all Amp+ customers are very happy with the sound quality. It is also easier to use as you only need a single board and a single external power supply. Therefore I would personally recommend the Amp+.

Best regards,
Daniel

Thanks for the answer.

Can you tell me what the dimensions of Raspberry + AMP+ are?

You mean the height? PCB size is the standard HAT size - same as the DAC+.

Yes, the height would be nice to know. And the dimensions of the power plug would be interesting, too.

The height is about 18mm, excluding the header connector on the bottom of the board.
