The Grace digital link will stream just as well as these more expensive options. I doubt there will be a drastic sound upgrade spending more money. @ $179 I’d say it’s a hard to beat option for someone who is mostly listening to physical media such as vinyl. It never drops the signal, has a nice display, and is easy to use. Even has a remote control, and has Pandora built in. I tend to use Pandora as It is a nice platform, despite it not being hi-res...which I could care less about. The Grace can handle hi-res should you care to stream it. Out of stock till January 22. I was going to buy the cambridge cxn, until I learned that it is build like a feather weight, very thin sheet metal casing, and does not even include the Bluetooth dongle.....must buy it separately which is ridiculous for a grand!. I’m content with spending just $179, I think the Grace sounds wonderful, and I smile every time I listen to it, knowing that I did not spend a fortune! The best thing I've bought in a long time.
What are you using as a streamer? Constructive feedback please.
Wondering what improvements I can made to my streaming end and what you all are using.
Not looking to rip CDs and I mostly listen to vinyl.
System right now is:
Node 2 (latest version used streaming only with Roon)
Bel Canto e.One ref DAC 2.7
Bel Canto e.One ref CD3t Transport.
Bel Canto e.One ref 501S (best Class D to date to ever grace my system)
Mini GaN 5 ( had to try it and swap it in and out)
AM Qualiton X200 Tube Integrated (love it and gets most use)
QLN Prestige 5 Speakers.
All cables and wires are Signal Cable.
Appreciate the constructive feedback.
Have a great day.
