Allo BOSS DAC Bundle incl. Raspberry Pi 4 and Max2Play

This bundle offers an optimal use for Max2Play as a high-end audio solution. Just put the delivered components together and you can profit from all of the Max2Play features for the BOSS DAC 1.2.

We recommend the bundle to all customers who want to play their music library through a digital-analog-converter on their stereo equipment and do not want to be limited by the clock of the Raspberry Pi.

Allo BOSS DAC 1.2

The BOSS from Allo, based on the PCM5122, is a successful DAC with gold-plated RCA connectors and its own masterclock.

By switching to I2S master mode, the Raspberry Pi only sends data to the DAC and leaves the clock entirely to the BOSS with its two high quality NDK crystal oscillators. What makes it so special is the separation of the voltage on 3 channels with different filters.

One for the digital side, the second for analog and third for the clocks themselves. This should translate with very low noise floor and better clock accuracy.

Additionally, the new 1.2 Version now offers a USB-C input for a separate power supply, further increasing the quality of the DAC's output.
