I bought a lifetime premium subscription months ago. They still charged me the yearly fee. I can't get a human to reply to me and am going in circles. I have an aggressive brain tumour, a fact I shar... See more

Volumio is really the best product, I have tested all the others (I won't name them out of respect). Installation is more than simple, the unique feature list that sets you apart from the rest... See more

I requested information regarding a DC socket and was pleasantly surprised to receive a reply within hours. Most unusual in the audio business. A good reflection on their staff and product.

Report about successfull Volumio Primo onboarding at home

The Volumio Primo is very well made. The central button has a good feel and the integrated status LED is very helpful.
After delivery, I updated the software using the built-in update function. Everything went smoothly.
The integration into the home network went without a hitch.
I have connected a touchscreen. This requires a USB-C cable with two different plug formats. It would be good if such a cable were supplied as an accessory. The description in the manual could be a bit more detailed.
It also took a while for the additional microSD card to be recognised. The description in the manual should be a little more detailed.
I installed most of the add-ons offered and they worked very well. Also Spotify.
The response time of the screen is a little sluggish. Is it possible to speed it up?

Account restoring

After having problems with my e-mail and trying to restore I was perfectly helped by the volumiu staff to create a new account and restore my premium account. I am very happy with this quick and very positive action. Thank you! I am happy again!

I clicked on "Get your REVO Here" and got sent to the trustpilot page to review the volumio site. What I don't get is any way to get to where I wanted to go. You are obviously not taking this seriously.

"Reflash your SDCard" each time is not an acceptable solution

Very interesting software bundle to bring a new life to a RPie 3B+ with an USB R2R DAC.

But Volumio is not fully prod-ready and needs more testing/Q&A to reach good-enough stability level.

"Reflash from scratch" each time an issue is brought up is not a proper answer to technical issues. This is a WINDOWS type of solution. Re-uploading 450GB of music takes me ~18h each time.

DO not use the /mnt/INTERNAL/ storage of Volumio is you intend to max out your storage space. It's an overlay that increases in size but does not decrease when you remove files. Once you've hit 0% available space a lot of things starts to fail (uPnP, covers not showing, can't attached an external storage, etc.).

Do not use plugins as any issue with a plugin will break your Volumio and require full reinstall. Do not make minor/aesthetic customization or updates won't work.

Still needs work and polishing to reach a better stability.
