From separate streamer and DAC to al-in-one suggestion
I'm contemplating moving from my setup:
Lumin U1 Mini w/sbooster LPS -> Audio Mirror Tubadour SE III DAC
to an all-in-one unit. I will use it strictly as a Roon endpoint. Since there are no R2R NOS type streamers, I've been looking at the AK based ones, like
Rose RS150
Cary DMS-600/650
Also rest of system is Omega 98db speakers, Slagle Autoformer Preamp -> Oliver Sayes 421a based tube amp.
Wonder if I'll be happy with the latest sigma/delta dacs in a all-in-one type unit. Anyone else made a similar move to mine?
Might consider the Bryston BDP 3.14. Especially if your using Roon. I just have there dac-less BDP-pi and it makes a great Roon endpoint.

One of the best moves I made was getting my ROONS core off a MAC mini and onto a SGC ST. It might be a small step but its significant. I put it in the back of my cabinet , dont even know it's there.
