Me with Aurender? NO. But a buddy here on A'gon, Pokey77, is loving his Aurender (N10, I believe). That's all I got for ya, u. Sorry.
Suggestions for a top flight streamer/Dac around the $2000 mark?
Time for another change and moving from my Ayre EX8 super integrated with built in streaming and dac to a BAT VK300SE integrated.
So looking to up the ante on streaming and dac sq with a dedicated streamer/dac.
I know this tech moves faster than I can keep track of!
So suggestions around the 2k mark and used is perfectly fine!
Many thanks!

A used Auralic Vega G1 might possibly fall within your price range.... https://us.auralic.com/products/vega-g1?variant=30892283920517 Were I to need to replace my Aries Mini, I'd opt for an Aries G1 (I have an external DAC). Been very pleased with performance from the Mini; it's my most-used source component. |
See the product report (Monoprice Monolith) by Duster at the link here. Previously posted to the "Help in deciding USB cable" thread. Ridiculously high performance to cost ratio. If you don't like 'em, you can afford to just throw them out. On the other hand the seller does allow returns. Comments on my own experience with them included in the AudioAsylum thread. I now have 1 meter running from Seagate HD to Aries Mini and 2 meters running from Mini to Schiit Eitr. (then Blackcat Silverstar 75 from Eitr to Schiit Gungnir MB.) https://www.audioasylum.com/audio/cables/messages/17/176921.html |
