Next Best Upgrade for Tidal MQA?
I’m trying to decide what my next best upgrade is going to be to improve my streaming music quality (predominantly Tidal, and Tidal MQA, when available).
Current setup:
KEF R11
Custom Deep Sea Sound 18” subs (2)
Marantz SR7012 AVR
Bluesound Node 2i
MyTek Liberty DAC
Parasound A21+
I’m wondering if I’ll get a bigger jump from inserting a Parasound JC2 BP as a pre-amp or replacing the DAC/Streamer with a MyTek Brooklyn Bridge? Or is there something else out there in the $2500-4000 range that will help make a significant jump?
Help and thoughts appreciated!

I don't know if this has been mentioned but John Darko posted this over at his site:https://darko.audio/2020/10/tidal-connect-who-what-why/ It goes into relating how Tidal is now going to operate like Spotify Connect and all the manufacturers that will or do carry it. All the best, Nonoise |
@anzaanimalclinic Appreciate the suggestions. However, the Innuos Zen Mini is really overkill for my situation. I have no need for a CD ripper or onboard storage. I also have no need for Roon as long as the network streamer can stream Tidal directly. Seems like I would be paying for a lot of features I won’t use and have no present interest in getting into. Again, I pretty much exclusively stream Tidal (and Tidal MQA when available). I have no digital or physical media collection whatsoever, other than some legacy SACD/DVD-A (that I may sometime deal with later through my Oppo 203). If the network streamer is the single next best upgrade, I need to find one that is more focused on what I do. |
