I've been using a Sony HAPZ1ES server for several years now, and I just got into streaming myself in the last few months. I wanted to start out easy and economical to see how much I liked it first. After reading many reviews, I went with Cambridge Audio's excellent CXN V2 because many reviewers liked both the sound and the ease of use afforded by Cambridge's Stream Magic app. I have been very happy with it so far, enough so that I haven't felt the need to move to the newer CXN100 that just came out. I stream from Qobuz and have found their selection excellent. They also have one of the largest Hi Res offerings as well.
Digital newbie
Hi all,
Could someone give me the 101 of digital today? I’m back in the hobby after a decade-ish hiatus and would like the basics of streamers v network transports v network players, etc and how Tidal/Qobuz/Roon play into it. I've been on Aurender's and Lumin's website and I think I get the gist but wanted some clarificiation. If there’s a specific thread for newbies like me, could you point me that way? Thanks!
