Hey Fuzztone, thanks for your reply. Question answered!
Qobuz through the Marantz CD6006
Hi, I'm new to Audiogon. What a cool place!
So, my question is:
I am streaming Qobuz through an IPhone 6 into a Marantz CD6006 CD player via USB. Am I getting the full benefit of the Marantz's DAC by using the USB input? Is the Marantz actually upgrading the resolution that's coming from the rather limited IPhone 6?
My ears say yes, but that could be a placebo effect.

Thank you Mahler and mesch. Hey Mahler, by the looks of your username, you obviously listen to orchestral. This is off-topic, but since I'm the OP, I will ask the question. What do you think are the best speakers under $1500 for listening to orchestral recordings, particularly large scale Mahler/Bruckner type stuff? |
mahler123 I've learned a ton since this newbie post and after some audition trials, settled on a pair of Kef 104/2's. They'll be paired with a McIntosh C27 Preamp and MC2200 Amp, U-Turn Turntable, and the Marantz CD Player described earlier. Source components will be the next upgrade down the road. |
