iPod, iPad, iPhone sound ?


Hi all,In one of my systems I run an i Pad through a Marantz 1060.This system was set up primarily for use with a tuner.I have added an old turntable and the i Pad.I listen to iTunes and Pandora with it . Question is would something like an HRT music streamer improve the sound ? Speakers are DCM time windows.Sound is ok but the tuner much better.I am not looking to change the amp.In a different system , my "digital " I use a Peach tree nova so I know the possibles of digital.I am just wondering if there is an inexpensive way to get a more analog sound ?

I dont know what to make of all of this i "stuff". I know it's all the rage these days, but when I got my wife an i RON she got really angry with me.
A question that comes to my mind is what recording format do you use for your iPad/itunes. Apple lossless, WAV etc, the better in, the better out. That would be my first line of attacking a problem such as yours.

Mcfarland, very funny comment.
I have a Sansui 9090 with DCM Time Windows with an istreamer hooked to my ipad and I find it sounds good. I have not regretted purchasing it in the least. I liked the isteamer so much I bought another for my office system and gave a couple out as Christmas gifts this year as well. I have three other HRT dacs including one of the first models and I think they all sound great. I have a music streamer plus in my main system that I feed 24/96 high res tracks and I personally can't tell the diference (on my speakers in my room that is) between it and some DACs costing a whole lot more.
