HiFiBerry Amp2 for Raspberry Pi

The HiFiBerry Amp2 is an amazing audio amplifier for the Raspberry Pi. Capable of being powered by a 12 to 24 volt power supply, it has an output power of 60 Watts! Grab yours from HiFiBerry https://goo.gl/nLgezq

Thie HiFiBerry Amp2 is a Raspberry Pi HAT that transforms your Single Board Computer into a Powerful Amplifier. This Raspberry Pi Amp would be perfect for an Arcade Cabinet! In the case of this video, I've installed mine into an Arcade Stick with 3 Watt Speakers built in. And does it makes some loud and clear audio!

Whilst this is also my HiFiBerry Amp2 Review, I had to setup Retropie to make the AddOn Board work. So, this is also partially a HiFiBerry Amp2 Setup Guide for RetroPie users. And here's the code you will need.

Type in the following command to launch and edit the config.txt file:
sudo nano /boot/config.txt

Next you need to remove the following line which is almost at the bottom:
dtparam=audio=on

Lastly you need to type in it's place the following line:
dtoverlay=hifiberry-dacplus

Press CTRL+X then Y and ENTER to save the file. Reboot and Retropie will now be using the HiFiBerry Amp2 for Audio Output!
