Ask for help choosing music streamer


Hi,
Good morning!

I have been using weiss int202 for 2 years and just want to abandon laptop. After doing some research, I am swinging between several music steamer around 2k-3k usd,
1) nad m50;
2)cocktail x50;
3) bryston bdp2.

I value more on musicality and details. Feature is secondary to me. I want a pure streamer who has aes and coaxial digital output. Unfortunately, I am only able to try bryston’s in my friend’s system. Is there anyone who can comment on these three music streamer? Any comments and advices would be highly appreciated.

If someone is using an external DAC, how much do streamers differ from each other, except for features?

Hi, I have the Bryston BDP2 with the Auralic Vega and absolutely love the combo.  Would highly recommend.
