Thanks. I ended up ordering a T2 and Michi P5 as pre.
I will have compare T2 vs P5 and see how to wire them up
Streaming DAC recommendation
Hello, I am researching about a streamer + DAC combo. My setup has 802 D3 McIntosh MC462 and C2600. I am looking to replace the C2600. I only listen to streaming or local files via Roon. No longer have a turn table, so I think the C2600 may not be the best pre-amp for this use case. I am considering Cambridge audio Edge NQ. I have not seen a lot of discussion around that product. I will be greatly thankful for recommendations, products similar to edge NQ. I want to keep the budget under 5K , used gear.
Thank you!

@audphile1 Thank you. Ok, I thinking two go with two box solution as you pointed out. May be Lumin D2 and some other product for streaming. I need Airplay as well.

@wsrrsw yes, I am using a Mac mini as my room server, trying to eliminate the Mac. Roon nucleus is a good option as well. |
Thank you all for your time and writing about all these product. If I were to pick a dedicated DAC and streamer with great UI. What would you recommend. Is PS Audio Direct-stream DAC MK2 mentioned here a good dedicated DAC? I read a lot of reviews about HiFi Rose 150B, especially about the software and the integration. Will it make sense to use 150B and a separate DAC or just use the 150B. As far as Lumin, I love the hardware quality, looks like the app to control streaming sources are not great is what I understood after reading about it. |
