What are you using as a streamer? Constructive feedback please.


Wondering what improvements I can made to my streaming end and what you all are using.

Not looking to rip CDs and I mostly listen to vinyl.

System right now is:

Node 2 (latest version used streaming only with Roon)

Bel Canto e.One ref DAC 2.7

Bel Canto e.One ref CD3t Transport.

Bel Canto e.One ref 501S (best Class D to date to ever grace my system)

Mini GaN 5 ( had to try it and swap it in and out)

AM Qualiton X200 Tube Integrated (love it and gets most use)

QLN Prestige 5 Speakers.

All cables and wires are Signal Cable.

Appreciate the constructive feedback.

Have a great day.

Different approach. Your ethernet signal needs sprucing up with fantastic results. I had a Lumin T2 and now have a X1. First I should have cleaned up the signal using the EtherRegen and better ethernet cables. Now they tell me.

If using Roon, then their Nucleus / SBooster (on my system) bested using a computer even my yawning spouse agreed before beating it out of the listening room.

I found the high end streamer with built in DAC to be (or not to be, that is the question: Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, Or to take Arms against a Sea of troubles...) a bit more resolving but again cleaning up the signal was the most significant thing ever done to my system.
