Ooooh awesome it's arrived .
Is the sound hardware pickedup by linux?
Let us know how you get on, I left an enquiry on pricing for this and the W0 last week but they already broke up.
Looking forward to your impressions pal.

Yes, the sound hardware is detected, but WLAN is not working - possibly needs some firmware. I just ordered a usb stick. Sound is good. Balanced high gain, even U18t is silent. Though the system is very slow. I enabled EQ on Windows (AIMP) and it started stuttering. It is damn heavy.
Internally the sound hardware is connected over USB bus. It is delivered with two batteries, but battery dies so fast.
It is rough and tough. Definitely not for beauty contests. Hahahahaa!

Thats like the A2 was (apart from slow), shame it's running slow, I'm sure it can be be improved 👍

Awesome, wifi working now too on the tp-link Exactly! And it works much better than Windows. I can enable EQ or other effects on VLC no problem. Still it needs a lot of work to have a DAP convenience but getting there. |

I used it up until recent years on of course an extreme modded xbox 😂 Some old pics here www.xbmc4xbox.org.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=1959 |

I installed the standart Ubuntu then the XFCE desktop, which is light but powerful. |
