Sonos Connect directly into MC452?


Hello there,

Do you think combination is viable? Would it compromise the quality for Tidal music in anyway? I am only looking to play streaming music.

Many thanks!

I think it would be a good combination as long as you do not expect to stream at higher levels than CD Red Book (which is all Tidal offers right now, and I guess in the near future). Tests of Sonos players have been very favourable, and these days volume control in the digital domain is not an issue. If you are still worried about that, you could add a Level Pilot volume control.
Alternatively if you wanto add a convenient streaming option for higher resolutions (from a NAS), you may want to consider the Chromecast Audio, into a high quality DAC.
Lean and flat is often an other way of saying accurate. However, if the OP really wants to be sure, why not get a Benchmark DAC3?
