| New DAC! Meitner MA3, Denafrips Terminator Plus, Holo May KTE, Mola Mola Tambaqui @chauncey , get an Aries Cerat DAC, even at entry level Helene, it beats so many DACs at higher pricing. | |

| Curious to know your streaming and dac set up and the best recommended streamer under $15k I connect Laufer Teknik Memory Player streamer to Aries Cerat Kassndra II DAC. The streamer is under $15k. Good luck! | |
| STREAMER Upgraded power cords generally make an improvement, depending on brands and if a user can hear it or not. | |
