| Bryston BDP-3 vs Lyngdorf MP-60 2.1 internal VTune player I use a BDP-Pi with Roon and it’s purdy solid. Rarely does the Pi drop from the network or flake out.

| Streamer, no DAC please? If you'r patient you can find Bryston BDP-3 for ~$1.5K. There is a Bryston BDP Pi on here for $800. Interface is spartan and they both are out of production but SQ is top notch. | |
