Best Dedicated Streamer

I have a Canary KD-2000 DAC and seek a high end digital streamer to feed it with. I don’t need an integrated unit with a DAC built in nor do I need or want a CD transport in the streamer.

What manufacturers and products should I consider? I would much prefer to buy US made.

Thank you.

Grimm MU1, also invest in a proper switch like Ansuz powerswitch D2 and for good results Ansuz Digitalz D-TC2 ethernet cable between switch and MU1

And don’t forget a proper DAC, I use Bricasti M1 SE into Pass Labs XP-22 pre-amp  and am really happy with this setup.

Someone else mentioned Lucas Domansky and his LDMS.  Custom made and absolutely the finest addition to my system.  It simply blew away my SMG, my Aurender, and my Aurilac. And a great value to boot.  It was hard for me to believe a streamer could have such an impact on SQ.  The LDMS and my recent Lampi DAC simply transformed my system.

Coincidentally we started testing streamers on the market to pair with DENAFRIPS DACs. You may find the following article of interest to you.

 

Happy listening,
