15k for streamer and dac....how much on each?


for a music first, streaming only, two channel system.......with 15k in pocket (can buy new or used)  is the general rule of thumb 50/50 split on the budget?

do any all in one units at this price point compare to separates?

What choice did you land on at your respective budgets?

I've not had the greatest experience with streamers.....sound more similar than dissimilar to my admittedly non golden untrained ears

I can second Audioman58's recommendation to your inquiry.

The App for the streamer can provide a most certain opportunity for frustration if you don't go with a solid one. I'm a huge fan of the Sense App by Innuos. Make sure your streamer is hardwired with Ethernet-In. If you are going the Roon route, be certain your streamer is compatible. Not all are.

I use an Innuos LPS for my Pulse-mini, but I'm certain the Pulse and Pulsar have built in toroidal transformers to be certain your power is clean.
