I don't stream at all. I still enjoy hunting for music in record stores and on-line (discogs, ebay, amazon, bandcamp). I've probably spend too much already on playback equipment, but I am curious - how much does one have to spend on streaming equipment so it will sound as good as lps, cds and sacds? Forgive my ignorance, but isn't streaming wireless? I've read that wireless is not as good as a good old turntable or CD player. Untrue? Thank you |
I put off streaming way too long. I picked up a Vault 2i in 2019 and it completely changed the way I listen to music. That Vault is now in my second system , the main system has an Aurender N200 I've never discovered so much great music in such a short time. Anyone not streaming should give it a try for this reason alone. Worth every penny, in fact a Qobuz or Tidal subscription is less than 1 movie ticket making it one of the best values in entertainment.

Streaming can be wireless or wired. With respect to $/SQ ratio you will get umpteen opinions here. IMO it’s equivalent to CD; if you have a CD Player that costs say $1K you need to spend about the same on a streamer to get equivalent quality. And as with CD Players, you can spend much less and get excellent results.Megabucks will also get great outcomes but if you are new to streaming I suggest starting in the low cost area and upgrading if you find yourself liking it |
