What are you using as a streamer? Constructive feedback please.

I like your choices. All very musical.

Steamer buying is harder than other gear.

Why? No in depth reviews that clearly

explain what makes one piece better

than the next. Higher price = better SQ?

Maybe.

What I use you don’t need. (Innuos ZEN 3)

Whatever you do buy add an Uptone Audio Etherregen.

Goos tweak.

Since you have no need to rip or store

that knocks out some normal choices.

You have gear that says you hear

well. I suggest the newer Lejonklou

Streamer. $8k.

Look into it.

Bricasti M5. Handmade in USA, bulletproof build, flawless performance. Roon ready. Can be had brand new for $2k. No USB needed.

I use ROON + Tidal and Qobuz for my internet music streaming. I’m all in on ROON, so for me getting a ROON Nucleus as my streamer and powering it with an 19v Sbooster LPS was an easy choice. It’s essentially plug and play, and the ROON software is automatically updated so I never have to worry about a thing. With the addition of a couple of tweaks which helped to reduce RFI in my system, I find the sound quality of the ROON Nucleus to be quite good. My listening chain from the wall is this. CAT6 router > L-Com CAT6 Ethernet cable > D-Link network switch > ENO Ethernet Filter System Ag > ROON Nucleus Rev B > AudioQuest Diamond USB cable > Audiowise SRC.DX > a single WAVE Storm BNC cable > Chord Hugo M Scaler > dual WAVE Storm BNC cables > Chord Hugo TT2 DAC > dual AudioQuest Earth XLR’s > Woo Audio WA22 headphone amplifier.

Can you spend more on an audiophile grade music streamer? Of course you can.
