Story

www.berryaudio.org

“As an audiophile, a software engineer, and someone who loves building own products, I’ve always wanted an audio system/streamer built with my own preferred tech stack—something modern, intuitive, and truly customizable. With modern hardware, computing power and with a vision to preserve offline experiences & privacy, I’m convinced you can build almost anything without relying on the cloud services. After years of missing the simplicity of Winamp and the smart features of old MusicMatch (some of you might not even remember those days), along with the charm of classic audio systems, I finally decided to create something for myself. So today, I’m starting that journey: building a DAC setup that blends the best of modern features with the soul of legacy audio systems”
