Streamer & DAC under $1000?

Here’s an idea for a separate DAC and streamer that’s in your price range and gives you the flexibility to upgrade the streamer or DAC in the future as tech progresses. I think it’d be tough for a combo streamer/DAC to beat or even match this pair. I own this DAC BTW, and it’s an excellent performer for the $$$ and even more so used. Add an external LPS to the Node when funds allow and you could be good for a long while. Just one idea, and best of luck.

Here’s a review of the DAC in case it’s helpful, and I find it to be pretty spot on.

You might try the Matrix mini-i Pro 4.

This has amazing streaming options, and the DAC is pretty good as almost all DACs are these days. I owned the prior model.

Thank you all very much. I appreciate the recommendations.
