What a coincidence. I just posted similar thoughts on a good streamer with no DAC. I bet both Bluesound Node and Aries Mini could be half the price if they get rid of the DAC. Alternatively, they can build another model sans the DAC.
Budget Streamer for Tidal/no doc
Im looking for a step up from the chrome cast audio which sounds like ass with a few days I've tried. I don't want to go the songs route so what would be a good entry point for streaming tidal
1)The aries mini looks pretty good but paying for a DAC which i have
2)The micro rendu also looks pretty good but i guess I'm getting old, because i don't understand how it works. Do you have buy roon to make it easy to use?
3) blue sound node?
Thanks in advance...and yes I've done a search and tried to read up on microrendu
