Streaming services have differing quality. The better services are certainly better than radio when comes to “…dynamic range and frequency bandwidth.”, comparable to CD quality. Streamers can offer a digital broadcast of radio stations from around the world. Some of these streamed broadcasts are of better quality than others. Of course with subscription you can avail yourself to countless on demand music tracks as well. Furthermore, when coupled to a server you can have instant access to your existing CDs content. You can direct all this content to multiple rooms with appropriate add ons. Your current disc players likely have a digital output. Keep them as transports. Look forward, not backwards.
A move has me thinking of a CD changer....?
I have moved to a city that is too far away for any quality FM stations....ie: no Jazz, no NPR/public radio stations..etc. simply two or three Country stations...
I have a very good extensive CD collection and both of my systems CD players are single disc players....so the question is, are there any good sounding CD changers? I could also use a changer with an outboard DAC. And no, I am not putting down Country music, it is just not what I choose to listen to. And to me, online/streaming is too limited in the dynamic range and frequency band width.
