Better DAC or better Streamer

Thank you so much, everyone.

Probably the reason some people say all streamers sound the same- they are using throwaway cables which mask 30% of the music from getting to their downstream components and speakers.

Both of equal importance IMO. Innuos and Lampizator have given me the best digital I’ve had yet. Just pulled the trigger on Lucas Audio LDMS server based on @willgolf and so many others glowing reviews. Can't wait to get it!

You’re received a lot of responses.  There’s only one way to tell in my experience.  A/B testing with both the streamer, one vs. the other, and then the same with the DACs.  Only you can decide if it makes one or the other a worthwhile upgrade.
