Better digital front end for my DAC

So in this case it's all about the added functionality provided with the Sonos device, and ensuring it sounds as good as possible, as opposed to finding a streamer that outperforms the Bridge II.  

And Porsches.

Yes, for casual listening I appreciate the ease of the Sonos as does my girlfriend.  We both dislike mcontrol for the layout and inability to play more than one song without manually advancing to the next.  

The Wyred 4 Sound Reclocker arrived today and I just connected it and the improvement is significant.  The unlistenable sound I was experiencing has disappeared but I am only 2 songs in thus far.  I am not able to listen at a great level because of family activites at the moment.  I did purchase a coax cable but the local store, ListenUp only had one.  Currently I have the optical out of the Sonos feeding the Reclocker and the coax into my PS Audio DAC.  I will source another coax and see if it makes a difference.

While at ListenUp my sales person suggested I trade in my old Sonos for the new version.  Wondering if anyone has tried the new Sonos Port after having the Sonos Connect and noticed a difference.  Also, now that I have the reclocker is it necessary?  I still get confused with the 1s and 0s.

@mmporsche

glad the reclocker is working for you

here are two good sources for reasonably priced, excellent quality and sounding digital coax cable - be sure to get no less than 1.5 meters in length

and to answer your last question - a sonos connect v2, and a sonos port, feeding bits (not analog) connected through a w4s reclocker will sound the same, work the same

happy listening

btw, i am not affliated with any of the above, other than buying owning and enjoying their products

I’m a big Roon fan but you get a big jump sound quality with mcontrol. I can no longer use Roon for critical listening. 

i added the uptone audio gen. A BIG upgrade for a modest cost.  Not as big of an improvement as going from Roon to mcontrol. 
I also went from a $150 “audiophile” Ethernet cable to a $500 cable from uptone and that was a nice improvement. You get what you pay for in cables, unfortunately. I wish it weren’t so but glad to have the improvement.
