I am using an Aurender with N100H and while higher than I wanted to originally pay, it's been well worth it. It's mated with a Yggy and Audio Research amp and pre. I have ProAc 30R speakers and the stnergy between them is great. YMMV, of course.
Node 2i to U1 Mini with Yggdrasil?
Wondering if anyone has gone from a Bluesound Node 2i to the Lumin U1 Mini with a Schitt Yggdrasil.
So far most of the accounts that I've read say that the U1 Mini is a bit better but not wow what a difference! Being able to run AES/EBU would seem to be a possible advantage here.
Picked up a Teac NT-505 on a whim to try out while having a bit of extra free time on my hands and I'm not feeling the desire to get the Bluesound/Schitt combo going again right away at all. The Teac has really good bottom end, tone is excellent regardless of how complex the music gets and separation and detail is really quite impressive.
That said, the Yggdrasil does have a particularly organic sound which I quite enjoy so I'm wondering if I should try out a better streamer before I think about possibly finding a new home for the Yggy.
If anyone has made this particular transition let me know what your thoughts are...
