Streaming 101
I know nothing about streaming and would like some feedback. All I have is a laptop running windows. Is there a one box way to do everything? I have an older SACD player and don't think I can access its DAC.( Esoteric X-01 D2) The rest of my setup is pretty evolved so I would like something commensurate without breaking the bank. Internet radio is something I would really like to be able to access. Excuse my ignorance, most of the music reviews I read about these days seem to be unavailable to me via my turntable or CD player. Thanks.
OK, so let's work on wringing more out of the node, get a good ethernet cable and power cord and very important an Audioquest Jitterbug for it. IF you like it, upgrade to a linear power supply kit and eventually a nice DAC. You got good advice from @ghdprentice on the Schitt DAC for the $. You also got great advice on Qobuz as your streaming service, although i also have Tidal. enjoy the massive amount of tunes now at your fingertips.... |
