My Volumio was bought to give a new lease of life to my home HiFi system - Cambridge Audio One and even older Ruark floor standers. The Cambridge One worked perfectly but lacked Internet radio (FM feels
increasingly limited). I wanted to put all my CDs onto a NAS server to allow easy access. (I had planned for a home SONOS system but after owning a SONOS one for a year found it too unreliable to want to invest any further). After googling I stumbled across Volumio which appeared to be a cheap way of adding all the features I needed. I already had a Rasberry Pi so pretty much all that was required was a DAC & memory card. Volumio provide excellent instructions on the installation so it was a fairly easy install. Amazingly their system is completely free (they must make their money out of finished products). The Volumio unit simply plugs into one of the spare phono inputs on my Cambridge Amp and allows me to browse and play music from my network server where I've loaded all my CDs (courtesy of Itunes). The Volumio interface has a web based system so I can access from both my phone and laptop. The web interface is rather well done and makes the SONOS offering look very poor by comparison. My daughter has discovered she can play Youtube music from her Ipad - no idea how she does it but she's happy.

In brief - Easy way of adding Internet radio & server music streaming from a server.
Pros: cheap
Attractive web based controls.
Reliable connectivity.
Potentially very flexible for those with the skill.
Cons: - DIY product for those that dislike DIY
Sound quality OK
Update: Changed my Amp to an old Pioneer SA-400 amp. Really works well with my Volumio plus a rotary switch makes changing from vinyl to Volumio to TV sound. Just about perfect. My SONOT system has got even worse and barely usable these days - what a total waste of money.

It's about ALLO usbBridge GUI crash most of the time, The support doesn't have clue about the issue and if you wanna have n less than average quality you have to pay extra , it got nothing to do with audiophile quality , roon bridge quality is only CD , even mp3 files are up sampled to CD , I just used it for one month and then through away it away (200€ in garbage) , they just have great publicity to make believe they are selling audiophile quality software and units

I just wanted a player for my digital music collection, and this player does the trick: volumio.org /product/iqaudio-pi-dac-bundle/. It is a Raspberry Pi with a sound card on top from IQaudIO. It was the first Raspberry Pi experience for me and it went fairly smoothly.

Here are a few little points that weren’t clear to me or didn’t work when I got it:
– the case that was delivered had a piece missing. I was sent another case as soon as I complained about it. Thank you.
– I expected the Volumio operating system to be pre-installed on the flash card in the bundle. When I put it in, nothing happened, so I downloaded it from the website, following their easy instructions and put it on the card myself now it worked. That step might be a bit intimidating for someone who isn't comfortable with installing stuff...
– careful with the WiFi: when I entered a wrong password, I didn’t know how to get back into the system… So instead of digging through the configurations I just reset the flash card again.
– Now that it's all up and running, I realise that buttons would be great on my Raspberry Pi. If you don’t want to have it running constantly, you have to shut down and turn off on the socket switch (luckily UK sockets have them).

I like the fact that if I ever feel I don’t need the music system anymore, I can still use the Raspberry part for something else – or if I feel the lack of a button is too annoying, I could look into tinkering around with all the Raspberry accessories that are available…

I’m happy with the product and enjoyed the sense of being able to successfully assemble electronics without having to know everything and without having buy a full soldering kit…
