Should I connect my OPPO BDP 105 to my PontisII?
Will do!  Thanks!!!  BTW.  The sound continues to get even better with the new streamer/DDC/DAC.  Full and rich.  Better definition, ect....

I used the SPDiF out.  (Optical).  I do have the HDMI cable running to my TV.  Would that cause a problem?  If so, how to connect the OPPO to the TV optimally?

I connected the OPPO to the Pontus, but all I get is a constant "clicking" sound.  Thought it might be a faulty cable, so tried another.  Same thing.  Any ideas of what would cause this????

I obviously couldn't type in my post to Soix!  Sorry for the incorrect spelling for you handle.  and then I said most of my cables are audiolink, when I meant Audioquest.....

I should also add that first impression of the streamer, DAC, DDC combo is bliss!  The sound is on another level than before.   It really opened up the sound. I'm beyond happy with this group of components.

Soil, I went with an audioquest optilink.  Most of my cables are audiolink.  Thought I'd start there and upgrade as needed.  Greatly appreciate all of your suggestions! Iris, Pontus, Pulsemini....

Thanks, Yes the 12 hour time difference is an obstacle.  I have touched base with him on whatsapp.

The $1500 for the Innuos Pulsemini is definitely streching it to the absolute limit. But then, I don't want to regret not getting as good as possible and then wanting to upgrade later on.

Soix,   Does the Pulsemini support MQA from Tidal?  Is this a "real" consideration in your view?  Does it support Roon?  I am an absolute neophyte about Roon, so I have no idea if it's something that is worth going after.

vthokie83 and soix, So for me; the real question is, does the Pulsemini deliver enough of a boost in SQ to warrant the cost?  I know it's an unaswerable question really.  Is it $1000 better than a newer node?  $500-600 better than an Eversolo?  O...

Ok. So here we go again.  Streamers.  A quick look online and a couple of models pop up.   Eversolo 6.  Innuos mini. Thoughts?  Other choices?
