Streaming


Hello Family,   I`m old school 76 I just don`t understand this streaming and dac business. I`m still stuck on my RTR`s, Cd player and  PASS lots of power.  It sounds very interesting.  I was once told that I could also do some serious taping using my RTR`s I`d would like someone to tell me what gear I would need and how to set it up forget my desk top or lap top.   I`ve heard terminology used like Innos zin mini, Bluesound Node, Aurender Are they streamers? what is Roon, Qobuz, Plex? whats the purpose of a dac? I`m on fixed income `what`s the best gear I can get for 1500 mostly buying used gear to began. Thanks

Forget abt more complicated stuffs abt streaming, to start off streaming, u need to have a good wifi connected to the Internet. And here, we have free Spotify to get use to streaming. Tidal also offers 1 month free music streaming svs before subsr. 

If you dont want to spend much, start off with Only $99, you get a WiiM Mini streamer with a high-quality Burr-Brown PCM5121 onboard.

I enjoy streaming. 
One of the great things about online music streaming services is the sheer variety that is available. On pretty much all streaming services there are millions upon millions of songs to choose from. This is great because you are sure to never run out of music to listen to. Some streaming services like Tidal and etc even offer radio channels and music viodeos. 
You can discover new music on daily basis. 
My greatest streaming  fav being you can personalise your fav artistst with your fav songs. Example like this 


You don’t need to subscribe to multiple channels. Just subsc to one of either Tidal or Qubuz or Apple music or Amazon music, thats enough. 

 

@reubent when he (sheridanmartinj) becomes familiar with streaming and like it, and when he wants a better sound from streaming, then that will be the next chapter, a big one too...lol
