Raspbery Pi and IQAudIO boards

  1. I have used the DietPi image with good success, but have not compared SQ with the IQaudIO image. The minimal process count is at least theoretically beneficial to sound quality, and logging to RAM protects against corrupting the SD card on power failure.

  2. I definitely had some issues with dropouts using the built in Wfi with the RP3. Using a USB wifi dongle was a clear improvement (if you cannot go wired). The RP3 went from hourly dropouts to once per day or less.
