HiFiBerry Beocreate 4-Channel Amplifier with DSP/DAC
The Beocreate 4-Channel Amplifier is a powerful and flexible audio board that combines a DSP, DAC, and amplifier in one unit.
Designed for use with passive loudspeakers, it supports up to four channels of output and delivers a total of 180W (2 × 30W + 2 × 60W). The two 60W channels can also drive 2-ohm speakers, making the board suitable for a wide range of audio setups.
It connects directly to any 40-pin Raspberry Pi and allows full control via the Pi. With support for sample rates up to 192kHz and integrated 4-channel digital-to-analogue conversion, it’s built for high-quality music playback. No soldering is required—simply plug the Pi onto the board and connect speakers via screw terminals.
The board is powered by a single 12–24V external supply, which also powers the Raspberry Pi—no USB power needed. It can also operate standalone as a digital amplifier, but a Raspberry Pi is required to program the onboard DSP.
Features
- Up to 180W output power (2x30W, 2x60W)
- Capable of driving up to four of 4-8 Ohm speakers (the two 60W channels can drive 2 Ohm speakers)
- Fully controllable from the Raspberry Pi
- Sample rates up to 192kHz
- 4 channel digital-analog conversion included
- Connects directly to any 40-pin Raspberry Pi
- Only one 12-24V external power supply is needed to power both the Beocreate board and a Raspberry Pi, no need for an external USB power supply
- No soldering is required, the Raspberry Pi can be plugged easily onto the Beocreate board. Speakers can be connected via screw terminals
- Can work standalone (without the Raspberry Pi) as a digital amplifier. However, to program the DSP, a Raspberry Pi is required

Software
HifiBerry provides the following software:
-
HiFiBerryOS
- This software allows you to activate a Beovox CX50/CX100 or any generic speaker and use them to connect play music via Airplay, Bluetooth or Spotify
-
DSP TCP toolkit
- This toolkit can be installed on any system that allows to install additional software (some distributions use read-only filesystems that do not allow to install additional software). This allows use to use SigmaStudio with 3rd party distributions.
The software is open source, and more functionality will be added in the future.
