Ahhh, OK. I have no idea what a Playstation looks like,... so very well could be.
late to streaming, recommendations?
Vinyl and tubes guy here but I recently got my act together and figured out how to do loseless spotify into my system using a dedicated computer, usb to Cambridge Audio DacMagic100 and then rca into my tube preamp. sampling rate is 192 (whatever that means). was a definite improvement over what I was doing before and streaming finally sounds pretty good to me. Now I'm starting to use it a lot and wondering, well, how could it be better? What would be the logical and most worth it bang-for-the-buck upgrade path for me?

@argonsteele given your budget, my recommendation would be to forget the streamer and instead pick up a used Bricasti M3 DAC with MDX board and a built in network renderer and use Jplay with it, streaming either Qobuz or Tidal. Sell your Cambridge DAC and kill two birds with one stone - upgrade the DAC and eliminate the need for streamer as for $1000 - $2000 you’re unlikely to significantly exceed the quality of the Bricasti’s network renderer, if at all. You might need to up the budget to about $3500 total. |
