How do I play sounds with this? I see no jack for speakers or headphones. I assume one could have sound over HDMI but monitors with built-in speakers are not very common.
- teekert 6y agoRPi4 has BT.
- cardiffspaceman 6y agoThere are Bluetooth "DACs" that have tube-based amplifiers so you can really go nuts with a DAC that costs like 5 times the cost of the RPi 400.
- nobodyshere 6y agoMonitors with 3.5mm outputs however are not that rare.
- kingosticks 6y agoA super-cheap USB soundcard is another option albeit an ugly one. But I do agree it's a shame they couldn't squeeze an audio output into the design somewhere.
- rootbear 6y agoI noticed that. Audio has to come from the HDMI connection or from Bluetooth, either of which will produce better sound than the standard Pi audio jack. I imagine they see this being used with a TV, much like the old classic 8-bit consoles.

Just to take one example, the Apple USB-C audio dongle is only $8 and has extremely good measured performance: https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/review-apple-vs-google-usb-c-headphone-adapters.5541/ https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/r...
