Yes, while I'm nostalgic to a fault about the old physical devices, the receiver is the exception. From the flaky power supply connection to the one button which resets is the only control, it doesn't have much to recommend it given the current alternatives. That said I hope I can keep my current devices going for a while.![]()

The one and only benefit of the hardware devices was the reliable sync. The receiver is uniquely compact and can be hidden out the way very well in general. Though so can a pizero/DAC combo without too much difficulty I suppose...

[QUOTE=w3wilkes;941151]You can build a replacement for your Duet receiver. A Raspberry Pi, DAC, power supply, case to put it in, a SD card and the Picore player image and you're good to go. Here's a link to a pretty complete set of instructions.

Can this Rasberry PI receiver be controlled with the Duet remote controller?
