Streamers from miniDSP with built in room correction!


Hey everyone,
So one of my dirty habits is looking around used equipment sites trying to score a great, cheap surround processor. I admit it, I’m cheap, and demanding when it comes to audio gear. Some A’goner once tried to insult me by saying the could not imagine me spending money on gear, and honestly it was a badge of honor for me.


- HAH! -


So anyway, I came across a couple of neat, inexpensive streamers from miniDSP! Among the cheapest I’ve seen, plus they include Dirac room correction!

While some of them include DAC’s, at least one DOES NOT!! This is so cool. Essentially it is a pure streamer + room correction system, but still outputs to a DAC via S/PDIF / AES or ... USB!

Outstanding!!


I am really tempted to get one, if I don’t just get a new surround processor instead.

Best,

@mktmkt, thx for the useful inputs. how is your Roon-> SHD->DAC3 setup doing? Are you happy with sound quality? Do you have DIRAC enabled? How about usability/stability of the ROON+SHD? On the configuration side how/where do you do the volume adjustments? In Roon or SHD studio or the DAC3?
