Streaming

Honestly, a decent laptop, a good digital coax or toslink cable, good pair of analog interconnects, a good usb cable, and the musical fidelity vdac 90 is all you need for very good results. I’ve streamed this way for a year now and it sounds fine to me. But I must confess, I am a dedicated vinyl/ analog guy, so your preference and or results and needs may vary. I generally use streaming as a way to discover new music. I don't use it for my serious listening. I’d rather spend my money elsewhere, as in acquiring more physical media, as in lp’s, cd’s, and cassettes.
