@ckr1969 Are you looking for a server or a network player? I find the generic term "streamer" to be vague.
streamer need...........
good morning all, i am putting together another system and need streamer only, i have 2 other existing systems i am very happy with, for reference i have the burmester 151 mk2 streamer/dac in one and i have the aurender a20 streamer/dac in the other, like both a lot.
system three is different, i have a aavik u300 with dac built into it, therefore streamer only needed, what do you guys recommend from $7500-$15000 retail
thoughts?

@lalitk , how much better is the n20 over the n200? i like the a20 a lot, an i agree about keeping to what you know. thats why i listed what i have.
also, anyone have experience with the dac in the u300, i have heard its really nice but have not heard it, wonder how it compared to the surrenders |
@david_ten streamer, thats why i listed what i have, i listen to tidal & quobuz |
I have not the heard the DAC in U300 so I cannot comment. One thing I can say about Aurender streamers is this, each model in their lineup offers incremental improvements over the other as you climb up the price ladder. With N20, I would recommend a high end separate DAC to take advantage of N20’s superlative attributes. Before you spend any dime, I would bring over A20 and pair it with U300 via digital coax and see if you find U300 DAC to your liking and how it compares to DAC inside A20. I believe the DAC inside the A20 is probably superior than the one aboard U300. Reach out to Colin @gestalt in Nashville. He can assist you with N20 demo. |
