    Rega Elex-r Rega RP3 hum

    I have recently upgraded my Brio-r to Elex-R. There was hum from the RP3 with the Brio-r but now with the Elex-R it’s almost unbearable. Not sure I want to keep the RP3 unless I can get a solution. Any help would be appreciated

    I am trying out Audirvana and Tidal. The Screen sharing is Ok, is a little bit laggy. I’ve decided to use my MacBook.

    Yes, could plug monitor into RPi and keyboard and mouse combi. Does the DAC need to be plugged in at the same time? if above correct then do I type the command as suggested on the Volumio forum and hit return and see what comes up. Is it a diagnostic check or something?

    Hi margetti, not getting any sound from RPi, should the output select have USB, or do I select ALSA? Did you alter any settings from default? have had one reponse fro Volumio forums but. I think that only checks to see if my DAC is compatible. any help would be appreciated.

    Have Volumio setup and seeing my music files on NAS. Cannot get sound to Rega DAC, it hasn't got option to select USB as output source, have tried to reboot Raspberry pi to see if this cures it?
