> 24 hourI have a centralized music server along with Qobuz Music Streaming. This device setup with Ropieee works ideal when coupled with an external DAC fed via USB. If you use it for high res audio, make sure you get a quality power supply.

> 24 hourI wish I had seen the related answer before buying this case to fit a Sense Hat inside. You cannot put the cover on with a Sense Hat. The case is really nice otherwise, and I like that wall mounts wouldnt make any contact with the board.

> 24 hourThis is a nice, cheap housing for a RPI3. If your needs are correct for a simple, cheap housing, this is your guy! Your Pi fits perfectly, and all connectors are exposed as needed. NICE!

> 24 hourI use these cases to help keep the Raspberry board clean. No screws for mounting the board are supplied and the required screws are a bit of an odd size. I cut down longer #4 plastic screws.

> 24 hourI am very happy that I purchased this case. I tried building my own basic case, but it turned out crappy so I decided to just buy one. I really wanted a clear case to be able to see the Pi through the case, and Ive been waiting a while for a good case to show up on Amazon, so when I saw this I decided to give it a shot. Combined with a Pi cobbler cable, this a must have for the Pi. Installation was a piece of cake - just snap the two pieces together and youre done! The case seems sturdy and protects the pi from getting damaged when working around it. The little embossed port labels above each port are a nice touch. No complaints.

> 24 hourNice solid case with slots in all the right places. Just be sure to remove the SD card before assembly ;) And Assembly is a snap -- literally! It has little feet, but Ive never been able to get a Pi to rest flat on the table -- the cables [Ethernet and HDMI] always lift it in the air, and for some strange reason, every Pi I own always seems to float upside down! It even has peg holes for mounting the Pi on a flat surface [dang, you can hang yer Pi, now!] -- BUT, hanging the Pi will nearly cover the vent holes [the little feet mandate an ~40mil clearance], so if overclocked, probably best to keep an eye on it at first. Im running a Pi at the default speed and the case isnt even warm [but then, it wasnt running much of anything when I did that]. Also, make sure whatever you use for the pegs has a thin enough head that it doesnt contact the circuit board [unless its made of something non-metal, like nylon, for instance]. I suggest pan-head screws. And if they ARE made of metal, then adjust their height [so theyre not touching the traces, or components, on the printed circuit board] BEFORE applying power to the Pi.

> 24 hourThe only quibble Id have is theres no heat sink included. I have no idea whether Ill need one or not, but I do notice that other cases come with one, or even two. For what Im doing, this will live indoors in a climate-controlled room, and I wont be taxing it with a lot of I/O devices, so I think itll be fine. Just wanted to point that out in case your needs are different.

> 24 hourProtect my raspberry from being accidentaly damaged by scissor, other components. Few bucks for a more relaxed usage. Every slot match perfectly with all the sockets around your raspBerry Pi! The base has wall mounting holes (thats a plus) and the board can be kept in position using only the base (without the cover). In my project I used the base to stick the board inside a forniture (using the wall mounting holes), but I didnt use the cover as Ive mounted a daughter board with some dedicated circuitry. Its totally worth the 5 bucks.
