Any link to audio card available out there?
Hello,
I have the same question - where can we buy these? (I'm in the UK). I just spoke with Farnell in the UK, and they said they no longer stock or manufacture it. The tech person was surprised by discovering this, but then commented that the Chinese manufacturer (owned by Farnell) is no longer manufacturing it. Looking at the physical cardboard box in front of me, from a Cirrus Logic Audio Card which I bought a year ago, it is branded with both Cirrus Logic logo, and element14 logos, and the little information sheet inside the box says "manufactured in PRC", which is consistent with the story above.
Can someone at Farnell confirm / deny this situation ? It would be very helpful. In January 2016, the "order number" was 2448312. Currently the only mention of the CLAC on Farnell's site is as part of a kit (which includes a raspberry pi, power supply etc...) - KIT-A+-AUDIO-PLAYER ELEMENT14, Raspberry Pi Model A+ Single Board Computer, 256Mb RAM, HD Audio Server Kit | Farnell ele… , but that is out of stock.
RS components have nothing about it on their website (I don't think they ever did).
Adafruit offer it, but it's out of stock: https://www.adafruit.com/products/1761 (I've never used adafruit, and this is a site in the USA, I don't know if they have a UK/European outlet).
The pihut offer it, but no stock, and it's on "preorder" (and costs 54 pounds, double the cost that farnell used to offer). https://thepihut.com/products/adafruit-cirrus-logic-audio-card
I also just placed a call with Cirrus Logic themselves (their Edinburgh offices in Scotland), and await a call back. I don't hold high hopes of hearing from them (it's not as if I am from Apple or Samsung, after all).
Anyone got any other information. or ideas who to contact ?
Cheers,
James.
