I have a IQaudio DAC Pro (purchased from PiHut). To the best of my knowledge the Raspberry Pi DAC Pro is just a rebranded IQaudio DAC Pro (or perhaps RPL purchased IQAudio... see https://pip.raspberrypi.com/categories/772-pcn.
Anyways, the IQaudio DAC Pro works just fine with my Pi 5.
My previous audio solution was a DigiAMP+ directly driving a decent set of bookcase speakers, but at 5.1V@2.5A it does not provide enough power to cleanly run a Pi 5. Switched to a IQaudio DAC Pro and a Fosi Class D miniamp https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B0C36S8DCT?psc ... ct_details. Very happy with the sound quality of this solution.
The other solution would be to get an audio amp HAT that allows the Pi to be powered separately from the HAT.
The next gen of HAT+ cards should up the supplied power to 5V@5A which means they will be a solid solution for the Pi 5. I did not see any audio HAT+ products when I went looking for my audio solution.
