You missed my point. I am not a huge fan of that Mytec DAC either. I did a shootout with a friend of 4 different DACs, and the Brooklyn was my least favorite (vs. Okto, DCS Bartok, and Gold Note DS10). Obviously DACs sound very different.
But a decently engineered streamer will not sound different from another decently engineered streamer, IMHO. You heard a noticeable difference in moving from the M3 network card to a decently engineered streamer. I provided you with a credible reason why - for whatever reason, Bricasti’s network card has extraordinarily high amounts of jitter. Doesn’t mean their DAC doesn’t sound great, it just probably needs a low jitter streamer. See my earlier post where I discuss this very possibility in the context of the iFi DAC.
