Hello! I’m currently using the BAT REX3 DAC in my system and one thing you need to keep in mind is that you need to use the USB input to take advantage of all the sampling rate options. I’m currently using the HifiRose 130 as my streamer but use Roon because I don’t care for the HifiRose app. Another streamer that I have used and loved was the SoTM sMS-200ultra and it’s a very simple but KILLER sounding streamer, but once again you pretty much need to use Roon. There are other options but I never tried them. The REX 3 DAC is just amazing, it’s in my system for good!
STREAMER - WHERE DO I GO FROM HERE?
I've been using the Eversolo DMP-A8 and think it's a mid-range, feature-rich, capable, and attractive machine. For the past few months, my focus has been on putting my system together (e.g., new caps on the amps, new tubes, getting clean power, turntable, phono stage, etc) and have felt that I've been overly focused on the analog side. I've long wanted to work on getting my end game digital setup and pulled the trigger on a BAT Rex 3 DAC and now want a streamer that mates well with it. I know little about streamers. . .just enough to get lost in the topic.
Other than an easy-to-read screen and balanced outputs, what features should I look for in an endgame streamer that will deliver a significant performance boost? I invite any suggestions.
