Not all of us.
Happy Independence Day to all here, except us Brits who still resent what you did to us.

I'd check the number of holidays in each country before you start shouting.........

Shout out to the hundreds of sound engineers across the country trying to mic and mix a live orchestra on an open air outdoor stage today. Bonus points if it's a beach gig. Ya'll the real heros.
How disappointing.
#6 was a test. I have chosen to ignore your response and remove question #6 as no "true" audiophile would ever reply in such a fashion and would likely ignore question 6 seeing it as rhetorical and humorous. You are officially on Audiophile Probation with all posts scrutinized for a period of no less than 90 minutes and no more than 90 days. Tread lightly, my friend.
I was just trying to help you.

Yeah, but I'm beyond help. 
if you have DigiOne signature then I would get Allo Shanti and use its dual 5v LPS to power Pi4 for USB and Allo DigineOne signature for Coax before changing the HAT.Happy 4th of July / Independance Day to my US brethren!!! (Sorry UK folks.)
So, I hope everyone is sitting down, as I actually have audio questions.
Most of my 2-channel listening is streaming Roon via a Pi4 running Ropieee XL feeding my BF2 with 2/64 upgrade via USB. I also have a Pi3B+ with an Allo DigiOne HAT that I drop in on occasion and run to BF2 via S/PDIF coax. I like both but tend to stick with the Pi4/USB, not because it sounds better (I don't really know), but because my OCD dictates that I use the cleaner USB the Pi4 offers (and the Argon case just looks cool). Latey I've had an itch to buy the new Pi2AES 2.0 Pro HAT and use that in conjunction with my Pi3B+ and replacing the Allo board. So I have a few questions...
1. Is the Pi2AES 2.0 a discernable upgrade to Allo DigiOne using S/PDIF coax?
2. Is Pi2AES 2.0 a discernable upgrade to Pi4 via USB?
3. Does BF2's Unison USB negate any real advantage in using Pi2AES via S/PDIF coax?
4. If there is a sonic difference between Pi2AES and Pi4 USB or Allo DigiOne, how would you describe it?
5. Is the Pi2AES plexiglass case as ugly as it looks on the website? (I hope there are 3rd party options for black)
6.Or is it -- What, dude!!?? Save the $299 and quit chasing after the next upgrade.
Thanks!!!
If the one you have is non signature version of Digione then Pi2AES HAT may be an upgrade.
Also Pi2AES 1.0 didn't require any LPS to be used as there was no upgrade in SQ with LPS however with Digione the use of LPS is a must.

Thing that gets me about this is every app has its own payment system. I'm not giving that info out to every Tom, Dick and Harry and then there's the "it's impossible to cancel" thing like Amazon does....

You must feel pretty conflicted today.

Hehehe I read that as shooting the first time. Probably because I just got a sweet new suppressed .30 cal rifle I will be sighting in this evening. Gotta protect my hearing so I can fully appreciate my Schiit.

I don't like subscriptions, but I like how Apple iOS handles it. One central place to manage payments and unsubscribing from anything is as easy as a single click.
