@soix Thanks! I hear good things about the sense app and even the entry level Aurender is more than I'm will to spend atm.
Tube DAC (Black Ice) Users - What Streamer Are You Using?
This question is primarily targeted at other Black Ice users but I would appreciate comments from other tube DAC users as well.
I have a newly acquired Black Ice DAC fed by a BS Node N130 w/LHY power supply upgrade.
Digital is not my primary source but since my upgrades from a stock Node, I'm listening to digital more frequently.
I know the Node is entry level (and a great place to start IMO), but I'm guessing the Node is now the weak link.
So what dedicated streamers are you using with your Tube DAC?

@tksteingraber Thanks for the insight. The Bricasti looks well built. I'm not interested in ROON and it was unclear on their website if it has native support for streaming services like Qobuz? Does it have it's own controller app and if so, how is it? (Bluesound's is decent) |
@tksteingraber thank you |
@wlutke I've looked at your DAC before - looks really interesting. I thought the same about the stock Russian tubes but I ordered some NOS Mullards at the same time as the DAC so they weren't in long. Massive improvement and IMO the point of owning tube gear to a certain extent. My takeaway is the Lumin was a significant SQ upgrade to the Node but the app took some getting used to, correct? |
@dorislucero what does the myhealthonline URL have to do with your post? |
@wlutke thank you |
