Can I use a streamer with an internal dac when I have an integrated with an internal one?


I have a Parasound Hint 6 Integrated and am looking for a streamer. The Parasound has a reference internal dac, however most streamers I see have a dac in them as well. Is it possible to bypass the dac in the Parasound. I am currently looking at the Mytek Brooklyn Bridge Streamer. Any thoughts would be extremely helpful!

You’re not looking too hard. There are plenty around w/o DACs. The object is to find a DAC you like and then get a streamer. They all have various I/O.  Better upgrade path, although you will get great resale for a BluNode.
My Mytek Brooklyn BB has essentially taken me out of the market when it comes to streamers and DAC's.  It mates near perfectly with my modest, admittedly slightly mellow PrimaLuna/NOLA Boxer system. When the source material makes it available, I get excellent soundstaging and lovely timbres. Mytek was also both gentle & responsive when I mistakenly thought the component needed warranty work. My problem turned out to be simply a matter of changing a couple of settings on my Windows laptop, something that Mytek did when I let them remotely access my computer.
I would guess the Dac in the mytek would be better than the one in the integrated. You could absolutely run it either way. 
I have not seen too many reasonably priced streamer only options without dac. Would be interested to hear about any as I don’t use the dac inside the bluesound node.
