JustBoom Digi HAT Kit

The JustBoom Digi HAT kit is a fully plug-and-play package that is simple to setup and use. No soldering or technical knowledge is needed to get up and running. Plug in the power cable, connect the kit to an external DAC or amplifier/amplified speakers and set up the JustBoom player software. You can then be up and running quickly, enjoying flawless high quality audio playback within minutes of unboxing. All of the Raspberry Pi GPIO pins are still accessible on the Digi HAT for easy customisation of your project - add additional sensors, buttons, LEDs, rotary encoders or anything your heart desires.

Use Cases

• Circumstances where you need to have your streaming audio player (Raspberry Pi in this case) located separately from your amplifier or DAC.
• This method is usually superior to analog since the original digital signal is maintained until the amplification step (theoretically leading to less degradation of the sound).
• Streaming (either from cloud or local network) high-definition audio player
• Multi-room audio player
• Surround sound for media centre / set top box applications
