Point of higher priced streamer?

LOL!! Actual facts? He just ordered it. He does not own it yet. So let me understand this, he said the below based on some writing on the Internets, with no actual hands on experience whatsoever of either Chromecast Audio, or “High Priced Streamers”?

if connected via optical to a "decent" high performing DAC (e.g. Topping D50), it will outperform many higher-priced streamers

Holy crap AtDavid! And you hold yourself as the The Special One around here

So @rhg you fully understand those plots, but you still don’t own any streamer (just ordered a CCA from eBay), and any DAC? Hmmmm....

You guys are pathetic. And you don’t even hide it anymore. Your kin makes me throw up. Have at it

@thyname,

Maybe you should actually try reading some time instead of this bizarre obsession you have with me (and others it seems). You really need to get out of that little row house and out the country more and get some air. Did you actually follow this link? https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/measurements-of-sonore-microrendu-streamer.577/

The MicroRendu with the iFi power supply is an absolute disaster. Truly horrible. Hard to imagine how poor the design is to result in that poor of result.

And here you are defending it @thyname. There is no need to hear a Microrendu with the iFi power supply personally to recognize that is really bad. If someone defends that result, one can only assume they are more interested in defending dogma than in audio.

@rhg88 just provided the links. What he has or does not have in no way negates that the MicroRendu with the iFi power supply is a seriously flawed implementation.

I called out AtDavid. So you are AtDavid?

You know my name, and it sounds like you know where I live. Why don’t you tell me your name and perhaps we can meet face to face. Like man to man.
