Bryston Bda3 vs 3.14 Streamer


Currently running a Bryston Bda-3 Dac Using a Audiophilleo Usb/Pdif processor for usb output from my Laptop for U-Tube And Streaming service.

Was thinking about Changing to the Bryston 3.14 streamer Yes?

The streamer sounds good but the program that runs it, Manic Moose, makes it a non starter

There's always Rigelian for those who won't settle for Manic Moose.

What streaming service you got? Manic Moose only supports Tidal and Qobuz but a bunch of internet radio. Any locally stored files or interest in that? Any interest in playing CDs or ripping them to storage.  Any interest in exploring ROON?

  I used Rigelian.  It was an improvement over Manic Moose but that is a low bar. 

It recognized perhaps 50% of the music on my NAS.  I also had to reload the app

several times.  Rigelian was a free app, so one can't complain, but I suspect the problem was the crappy digital Bryston interface that it has to sit upon
