Jjss49 - not sure why you say H360 doesn’t have a DAC. It does. However I will have to get a separate phone stage with it.
While I am planning to use this with my TT, it’s nice to have the flexibility to stream too. However none of these units are so called Swiss Army knives And won’t have all of the below: 1. Streamer 2.DAC 3. Phono stage 4.Pre+Power
So with Hegel I will have go get phono.
With ML585, i will have to get a streamer and either get 585.5 or get a phono stage too. With ARC I will have to get a streamer/DAC and Phono stage.
With Luxman will have to get streamer/ DAC.
With the exception of Hegel H360, all of these will require a streamer, which is fine.
I left out brands like Plinius. It will be great to hear inputs on what else shall I add or feedback on the list I have.
