Mac vs streamer.

Is the difference between a Mac and a streamer as one's original source noticeable/significant to ordinary ears listening to a mid-level system? I know there are supposed to be drawbacks to the Mac and I understand why they exist, but if one listened to both back to back...?

Not even close even with a "cheap" streamer.
Listen to music from a computer source at your own peril.

All true. I "started" with general use computer for many years I went from sound card out to card optcal into S.M.S.L to USB to m2tech coax to Multibit. All big improvements.
Then I graduated.
All 5 streamers <$1K sound much better. It could be just a better than Schiit DAC but I’m not getting a PC anywhere near it.
