Thanks for the insight. BTW, have you ever heard a different DAC with the Sony or are you content with its internal DAC?
Sony HAP- Z1 ES music server into a DAC... is it possible?
My pal with the Sony server would like to add a fine DAC to his system. Is it possible to digitally stream music out of the Sony unit into a DAC and then into his preamp? I can't figure if the Sony has that capability. If it does, what is the means of the the digital output? Thanks for your insights.
