Point of higher priced streamer?

@rhg88,

Much of the criticism comes from following statement you’ve posted without even having the opportunity to actually listen the CC and any comparison with high priced streamers in your own system, 

“it will outperform many higher-priced streamers and it will be hard to beat, at least from the performance measuring perspective.”

Good luck with your journey into digital.

Hey @clifffff : to answer your question: since the chi-fi peddlers and paid advertisers started flooding ALL audio forums, posting under the disguise of science and “scientific measurements”. In the name of science. Objective is clear: bury the domestic audio industry to the ground, until every single person buys a chi-fi device. Just look at the attack in the name of measurements to low cost US based manufacturers like Schiit Audio.

After all, it’s really cheap to hire dime a dozen trolls from the troll factory.

So when Audio2Design posts a bazillion of posts here (and over 10,000 posts previously under the 4-5 now banned usernames), he is actually working, that’s his job.

Oh... and I know how this @rhg88 fake show is going to end: he will eventually “buy” a chi-fi DAC, likely a Topping or Matrix touted by the “science” ASR peddlers, feed it with a CCA, and prove it to everyone it’s the best ever audio since kingdom come

@thyname -- and let’s not forget the ’racism’ tactic. A false moral equivalency has been created between any criticism of chi-fi and outright racism against China. So basically, if you point out any deficiencies in the chifi products, first you will be beaten with the ’measurement’ stick and if that doesn’t work, you will be proclaimed a racist to shut you up!

So enjoy the products made by luminaries like Nelson Pass and John Curl while they last. Once the notion of ’planned obsolescence’ takes root in high end audio, you can forget about pushing the envelope, craftsmanship, longevity and pride in ownership. You’ll be lucky if your component will last beyond 5 years, but hey at least they will have perfect measurements, right?
