Free Your Music from the Cloud with Open-Source Volumio Pi

An open laptop with a blue colour body. On the screen is a picture from behind a person who is wearing headphones and working on a laptop. To the right of the laptop is a small cloud with a cable leading to the laptop, but the cable has been broken. Above are a pair of headphones and a blue speaker with two black speaker cones. To the left is a smartphone showing a music player on its screen.

Volumio is a free, open-source music player designed to unify all your music in one convenient place. In addition to offering its range of streaming boxes for purchase, Volumio also supports a variety of third-party devices.

The Volumio project is led by audiophiles and music enthusiasts who strive to ensure that Volumio and Volumio OS deliver the best sound quality possible. While their devices offer superior sound compared to a Raspberry Pi, it’s hard to beat the Pi’s affordability.

What is key here though is that most users do get a proper high fidelity add-on card for their Pi’s. There are also a number of additional plugins that extend the functionality. If you’re interested, it is worth watching a few videos on YouTube (or elsewhere) that show more of how the functionality works.
