    Looks like a Pi 3 B+, based on the wireless chip in the corner with the RPi logo on it and two pairs of USB sockets on the other end next to the RJ45 socket.

    I think it's Pi3 B+, I'll take it apart and check. It's an awesome little dac, used it at work with Modi MB and it definitely sounded cleaner than the Schiit Eiter/Usb 5 when I tested it on the Yggdrasil. Used two ifi 5v power adapters and that brought it up a few more notches. Sound signature as a transport, very transparent and resolving even with crappy mp3 files. On par with Allo Digione and definitely better than the hifiberry offerings.

    502DAC is a lot better than the Hifiberries.

    I really love mine. I run moOde audio without any glitches. Put mine in a box with a 2TB drive and it is a whole lot of awesome for access to music. I use the 502DAC as a coax source for my dac.
