| spend on the streamer or on the DAC ? +! for this:rbstehno1,175 postsGet the best dac you can afford that has an Ethernet port and then get Roon to run on a server that is located outside of your audio room. Forget about the flawed usb connection, then you don’t need a computer in you... | |
| spend on the streamer or on the DAC ? ...or to be more direct, don't waste your money on a separate streamer until you have a very good DAC you like, and it just might even also be a very good streamer! and one less box and cable and power cord...and that again is just my opinion! Ken | |

| Lumin X1 with Innuous Zenith Mk3 Question Hi OP, Yes, I was also looking at the X1 and was surprised to see no other digital inputs. I use my DAC as a streamer and endpoint for ROON, and also use additional optical input for TV Audio. For this kind of money, I would strongly consider t... | |
| Caveat about the Cable Company return policy I have had nothing but good service and good experiences with Steven at the Cable Company. He guided me through several shipments from the lending library, and I ultimately bought nice B stock Audience cables. Ken | |
| B&W 803 d3. Is a 16 x 12 size room ok for this spkr? The 803 would be great. Not too big. Richer sound. | |
| B&W 804 D3 vs 803 D3 I have owned 804N and do own 803N and 802N. I have auditioned the D3 802s and 803s. Many here dump on BW but they are great speakers with right electronics. How big is your room? The 803s are a big upgrade, but to me, the 802s are a huge jump ... |
