Both sides in this debate are correct.
1- It's a terrible decision if the OP sticks with his DAC and there is zero reason to think he will.
2- When he upgrades his DAC he will be ahead of the game.
Solo streamer
I’m looking to replace my Cambridge CXN v2 with a streamer that has better SQ. I want a streamer with no extra accoutrements: no DAC, storage capacity, etc., nothing but a streamer. Is this available?
