Bricasti M3 with Network option (roon ready) is very organic/natural, full bodied and rounded sounding but it isn’t colored or euphoric. If you want colored and euphoric, add a vintage tube preamp with a Class A solid state amp or a tube or Class A integrated.
Streamer/dac …. Organic/euphonic sound signature
Hi guys.
Not new to the hobby but been away for many years - out of touch! Also developed nasty tinnitus while I was away.
No more critical listening for me…just background music. Still an audiophile at heart so good sound is still important.
Need recommendations for streamer/dac combo (keeping it simple) that’s organic and euphonic (coloured!) sounding. Rounded and full bodied weighty sound. Definitely on the very warm side of neutral. Dark? Excessive and thin/sharp high frequencies esp female vocal sibilance will set my ears off. :(
Budget $2.5 to $5k.
Thanks for your help.
