HAVE YOUR PI AND HEAR IT, TOO

13 March 2014

Raspberry Pi owners can now access new high quality audio capabilities as they develop their latest Pi innovations thanks to the new Wolfson Audio Card available exclusively from element14. The card brings both line-in, line-out headphone and headset support, on-board stereo microphones, and digital audio S/PDIF functionality onto the Raspberry Pi for the first time, opening up a wide range of new possibilities such as using the device to create a voice-controlled wireless home media network capable of running 24-bit music playback. The Wolfson Audio Card has been developed by Wolfson Microelectronics, the company that has more than two billion chips designed into many of the world’s leading consumer devices, from high-end audiophile equipment brands such as Linn and Astell&Kern, through to mass market devices like the Samsung GALAXY range of smartphones.
