The BDP-π also provides the functionality of a digital entertainment hub and NAS devices, says Bryston.
This core platform not only helped Bryston drop the price, but also shrink the size of the unit to 8.5 x 5.7 x 2.75 inches, or 1/3 the width of the BDP-2. The BDP-π (BDP-Pi) combines hardware and software borrowed from the company’s higher-end BDP-2, with a core platform based on the Raspberry Pi 2 and HiFiBerry’s Raspberry Pi-aligned Digi+ S/PDIF output HAT board. Its S/PDIF, Toslink, USB, and HDMI connectors can interface with virtually any DAC (digital to analog converter), says Bryston.
The BDP-π can play digital music ranging from MP3 to lossless 24/192 high-resolution files, and supports music library management and playback software from Roon Labs. The BDP-π is faster and more capable than the BDP-1, says the company. Yet that’s less than half the cost of the highly acclaimed Bryston BDP-2 player, while offering many of these same features and much of the same high-end sound quality.
