Have only used Qobuz via Roon. I find myself choosing Hi-Res versions of albums and songs from Qobuz over my CD rips.
A quick question on what streamers to consider.......
Hello fellow Audiogoners - a quick question as I have noted above on streamers. I am looking for a steamer only, no DAC, that would be easy to use. I don't want to worry about any updates and would prefer a US made product if at all possible. I have a WiFi service coming into my home so that would be how I would be getting my music. I would like it simple to use and without any hassles. I would be using it in the summer providing music to my back dec, or when cooking or entertaining inside. I would looking in the price range say of ; $2,000 to $5,000 used or new. Thank you in advance and look forward to suggestions on what to buy based on what I have outlined above. Thank you in advance and please stay safe and well.....

@longball44 I use an Atom into a preamp as a streamer… a waste of its other integrated amp capability. I don’t have the headphone specific model. One does need to be careful with having two volume controls… Hope this helps. |
One possibility is the Rivo, works great with Roon, also the little streamer from Primare is well liked here in Europe, they are both on the cheaper side but are well made and sound great, you can always upgrade to more expensive later if you want, but spending a lot on streamers you may find is not necessary, you get you money back more from other part of your hifi, that is my belief. Great dac by the way. |
