Seeking Recommendations for a Streamer (No DAC)
I've read some good things about the new Matrix Audio NT-1 streamer.  It comes in at $4000.  I know that sounds expensive but it is a pure no frills all about the sound streamer that competes with the big boys.   A bunch of people over at the Holo...

@yyzsantabarbara Do you have any new updates on the DAC's you are testing?  
DAC's with HQ-player
@milpai You are the needle in this haystack I was looking for....haha.  What do you think of the T+A DAC200.  I was looking at that DAC as an option.  What else do you have in your system>
