Review: Easy implementation! - Worked great on my Minidexed build. Amazing sound.
Review: RaspiAudio Audio DAC Hat Sound Card - The RaspiAudio Audio DAC Hat is a good choice if you’re looking to add mic and audio in small package to your Raspberry Pi projects. I used it to make a voice assistant with my Raspberry Pi 3, and it worked pretty well overall. Getting it set up was fairly easy their website had directions for installing the drivers using the command line. The speaker quality is just okay, but I wasn’t expecting much from it. The mic quality is pretty good. It picks up voice clearly and works perfectly for voice commands, which is what I needed it for. All in all, it’s a nice little addition for Raspberry Pi projects if you’re not super picky about sound quality. Works great for functional stuff like voice assistants. Rating: 4/5

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works but has a noticable crackle when no audio is present.
*by W***N on August 21, 2018*

This board works but it has a light crackle when no audio is present. My board may be defective. After several emails to the seller/mfg'r, various troubleshooting efforts were made to eliminate the static. The suggestions I received were either a bad connection on the socket (faulty ground) or a problem with the amplifier/audio system or noise generated by the Pi-Zero. The crackling only appeared when the power is on and no audio was being sent to the board. When my music player Volumio is idle, not playing music, the amplifier plugged into this board would receive a light crackle. Once the music started, the crackling stopped but would return after the music ended. The crackle wasn't present when the player was playing a silent MP3 file or when the volume on Volumio was turned to "0". It's worth noting that the static only occurred when playing through an amplifier, either my audio receiver or amplified speakers, and it occurred regardless of which Raspberry Pi it was attached to or what apps were running on the Pi (it started when it was simply turned on, before the Pi has loaded the OS). I tried running the output through two 1:1 audio isolation transformers and still received the crackling. I finally resigned myself to having the crackle on this board forever and have decided not to use it when building my Volumio player. My player build is currently on hold due to other projects but I haven't decided on the audio for the project yet anyway.
