Sat May 28, 2016 9:41 am

hi..

i know there is DIGI+ https://www.hifiberry.com/digiplus/
expansion card for the pi..and it just bitstreams data.

Then i found this : http://www.amazon.com/Kuman-SC07-Raspbe ... 6PYDMHV9NV
and want to ask if it is not exaclty the same board ?

Because on all pages they say its a wolfson sound card.. but in my opieion this has nothing to do with a soundcard..so is this a soundcard or its just expansion card to bitstream to an external dac.

Compare the pictures. Not the same. The reference to "Wolfson" (I only saw one) appears to be to the chip used.

Looks like a Chinese-made clone. Perhaps not bad, but before making a choice, consider software support is essential and I guess the hifiberry comes ahead there.
A quick google search about "kuman hifiberry" should give you some answers.
