2k to 4k Streaming DAC


I have a Anthem STR Integrated amp with floor standing Focal Aria 936 speakers. I have been using a Oppo BD-105 for streaming Tidal via XLR. I had a Pro-Ject Pre Box 2 Digital that I hooked up to the Anthem via RCA out and used a laptop to stream Tidal Masters and it sounded a whole lot better. I want to use an ipad to stream Tidal MQA files and think a new DAC with streaming would do that. I have read about Mytek and Element X.Are there others I should look at.

I just got my LUMIN T2 - if you look you can get one under the list price so it fits in your budget. The streamer / Sabre DAC is amazing for it’s sound stage and vocal clarity, and instrument separation.

it replaced my LUMIN  D1 which ran great for 5 years. You will love the software interface - runs great on my I pad mini. You get autosoftware upgrades via the internet. I stream TidalHiFi with MQA. This caused me to retire my TT.

Happy Listening
