I bought a Lumin U-1 mini for my Lampizator Pacific until I received my Lucas Audio Media Server. The U-1 mini is an inexpensive solution to your requirements and does Tidal and Qobuz. However, if you want to amplify your SQ, getting a dedicated music server is a way to go. I love my LDMS.
Suggestions for a streamer only (I have a great DAC)
I have a dCS Paganini DAC and Paganini Clock. I’m looking for a streamer only to pair with the Paganini to stream via Tidal. That’s it, I don’t need a streamer/DAC/etc. I don’t want to extra for pay for redundancy. Any good suggestions on a streamer only that you have paired to a high end DAC with good results would be appreciated.
PLEASE no “try some at home on your system” responses …. that’s the reason I came here, for some recommendations. Price range $1500-$5000.
Thanks!
