PS Audio DS w/Bridge II vs separate streamer/DAC


Thinking of upgrading my current rig (PSAudio PW w/BridgeII) which I use to stream Tidal and Qobuz using Roon.  I think the system sounds wonderful, but it is an older technology and have been thinking of upgrading to the Directstream for a while.  I realize it’s been discontinued but I don’t need the latest and greatest, nor do I want to spend the money for one.

But I recently got to looking at separates and am thinking of maybe going with something like a Denafrips Pontus II and a Lumin Mini U1 which, pricewise, would be in the ballpark of a used Directstream.

What are your thoughts?

Thanks.

Not to mention all the remote features. The bridge doe not do USB storage so I could not be less interested.
