Idea for a new component


Thinking it would be nice if someone would make a combination Streamer, DAC and Phono head amp. Cambridge? BAT? Ayre? I'd buy one.

Agree with @freediver . I  have a Moon 390. It is a one of a kind versatile quality component. Tough to beat at this price point. I have hooked up with a Pass XA25 and my Linn LP12. Also use the DAC for my CD to bypass the DAC in the player.

My idea for a new component would be a single run power cord with 3-4 "branches" at the input and output. Would cut down on clutter.

I guess what I'd like to see is a combination of components into one package become the norm. Example: Today, you can buy a streamer and you can buy a DAC. Not uncommon these days is a component with a streamer/DAC combination. Just take it a step further and add a quality phono amp (headphone amp would be nice also) and you've got a new component type.

  Also, I recommend the Mytek Manhattan $6,000 new

Maybe i'm not understanding what a Phono Head Amp is?

In Solid State design,NAD Master series makes one as does Naim but my $ would go for a SimAudio Moon 390,which I might add also offers a superb headphone circuit..

Ideally, a 3-in-1 box to match my BAT pre & amp. Instead of three boxes, one box with sufficiently high quality (to match the superlative sound of my BAT components). Six to ten thousand dollar range.

@ dweller, Network Streamer/DAC(what kind of inputs do you need),Phono(MM/MC or just MM) & your max budget might be helpful?
