The new batch has arrived and is ready to ship :)
Give your Apple iPod Hi-Fi speaker system new life with the 30-pin dock Audio Streaming Adapter for the Raspberry Pi Zero. No wires needed, the adapter plugs right into the dock connector and the Raspberry Pi. The adapter powers a Raspberry Pi Zero W or Zero 2 W that digitally sends the audio signal to a high fidelity audio DAC, that then feeds the signal into the dock connector. Works with Airplay 1 and 2, Bluetooth as well as Spotify Connect streaming or any other sound source playing on your Raspberry Pi.
- Software for Raspberry Pi now supports both Airplay 1 and Airplay 2. Compatible with streaming to multiple Airplay devices synchronously when streaming from a Mac (Airplay 1) or when streaming from any device (Airplay 2).
- Detailed software setup instructions for Airplay 1 and 2, Bluetooth and Spotify Connect.
- Can also be used to connect general Raspberry Pi Audio to the 30pin connector beyond Airplay sources, such as Bluetooth or Spotify Connect.
- Hardware supports up to 192kHz/24bit playback
- Stream music to your Apple iPod Hi-Fi boom box or certain other speaker systems with the 30pin Apple Dock connector, for instance the following:
Fully working (power and audio):
-- Apple iPod Hi-Fi
-- Sony alarm clock ICF-CS10iP
-- Bose SoundDock Portable
-- Kicker iKICK iK501
-- Beats by Dr. Dre Beatbox iPod Dock, also called "Monster Beatbox"
-- Philips AJ300D
-- harman/kardon Go+Play
-- Meridian F80/M80/i80
-- Yamaha TSX-80
Mixed reports:
-- Sony RDP-X200IP & Yamaha CRX-330 (No power. Untested if audio would work if power was supplied via microUSB to Pi).
Needs power via USB to Raspberry Pi, then audio works. Use a 30-pin dock extension cord between the dock and dock-adapter for having enough space to plug in the USB power connector.
-- Bowers and Wilkins Zeppelin Classic
Not supported:
-- Bang & Olufsen BeoSound 8
-- Bowers and Wilkins Zeppelin Air (due to not using the analog signal)
- For compatibility with your particular device beyond the ones listed here, please inquire directly at info@poolsidefactory.com. If you are up for trying your device and it doesn't work, you can return the unit. If you can provide a video of the unit working on your device that is not yet listed here, we'll send you $5 via Venmo or PayPal as a thank you for amending the list of supported devices.
- Supports the Firewire as well as USB versions of the 30-pin dock connector (12V and 5V compatible).
- Also connects the Raspberry Pi's UART with the serial port of the dock connector. See tutorial for how to configure the Raspberry Pi if you want to make use of this feature (available since PCB v4.0).
- Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W and SD card NOT included. When buying the Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W, make sure to order the version that comes with the Raspberry Pi header pre-installed, unless you plan to solder it on yourself.
