@maritime--thank you for the suggestions. I've never heard of Nuprime so I'll take a look. I have heard of bluesound but didn't know about the node 2i.
@audionoobie: I have considered the Naim Uniti product lines but I don't think the Atom has enough juice for my ATC speakers. The other two are out of my price range and I haven't seen any used yet. Worthy to keep looking at it. I have heard the Nova with some Focals and the Atom with a pair of Dynaudios. First was pretty awesome but music was too forward for me. Dare I say, bright. Atom/Dynaudio was a fun combo but I wasn't wowed by the sound. No arguing that you have found something good in this suggestion though. Thank you.
@rsf507 : Have you listened to it? What kind of speakers with it. Great suggestion. I think it ticks ALL of my boxes very nicely. I read a DARKO review that led me to believe that it was bright sounding unit. Bright and synonyms thereof scare with my speakers that are detailed themselves. Let me know your thoughts if you've had a listen to it.
@beetlemania- great suggestion minus the $7850 price tag. Maybe in 10 years I'll be able to afford a used one. I'm sure it's amazing, just out of my league.
@ethos123--genius! can you help me understand the connection between the harmony universal remote and the chromecast?
@hk_fan--didn't know a product like this existed. At first i was sceptical of the wireless streaming from a phone or wireless from a pc but the quick review I read was intriguing. Have to do more reading but could be a very nice fit.
@threeeasypayments--kind of looks like a homerun based on my above criteria. Have you listened to it? What were your impressions? Associated equipment?
@mz....--Is that a home theater receiver? After I wrote the post and headed to work this morning I thought of a home theater receiver too. I have a home theater receiver downstairs running my make shift home theater and it's a lot of fun but I have not found it great for listening to music. Fun for movies and video games, less good for music. What is your experience?
Thanks for all the great intel!
