Upgrade system to stream Tidal


Greetings All,

Would like to upgrade my current 10 year old system ( denon receiver, paradigm Monitor 9 floorstanding speakers)

Thinking about Cambridge cx 81 paired with Wharfdale Evo 4.3...Would I need a separate streamer to stream Tidal from my phone or laptop. Budget is around $3000-3500. Any suggestion would be welcome. Please tell me your honest opinion and what I need to know.

most respectfully,

Tony

I recommend Aurender for a streamer and Qobuz, not Tidal. It makes a difference. I would recommend an Aurender N100. I own one as well as their flagship W20SE. They are leagues above PCs, and iPads as streamers. With this, you can evaluate your DAC. The Aurender will assure you you have an excellent source. They are like the turntable of the digital world. You need and excellent source if you want great output. 

I have streamed everything from an iPod, iPad, PC, MAC, Aurlic Aries G2, and several Aurenders. You want a high quality streamer. You can see my system under my User ID.
