I would spend the money on a separate DAC and a good set of cables. If you don’t want the complication, then I would vote for the streamer upgrade over the amp.
Upgrade ....streamer or amp?
Having decided to keep my Merlin TSM MMs, I was going to upgrade my streamer (Bluesound Node 2 ---original version) and my amp ( Billie....original version). However, recent stock market activity has my IRA in a shambles, so I am only going to upgrade only one of the two.
Any thoughts on which to start with? I was considering both the Bluesound Node Icon, and an upgraded Billie (used....after new one comes out)
What say you?
