Thanks, everyone. I really appreciate your sharing your experiences around this. Here’s another question that’s come up for me: I need to be able to use a remote of some sort with any streamer. I have my iPhone set up to control my computer but I have a small one and the screen is small and it would not be good for trying to control a streamer. Would I need to buy an iPad to have a big enough screen to use as a remote for someone with not particularly good eyesight? Do any of the streamers have really big screens?
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...?
