Which combination of components (Streamer, DAC, Preamp, Amp, etc.) are most future-proof?
I’ve seen some positive and some not as reviews on it. I haven’t seen or heard it. But for the low price it looks really interesting let us know what you wind up with and any comparisons you do along the way 
Suggestions for a top flight streamer/Dac around the $2000 mark?
Greg, I noticed an improvement in sound quality (and now never ever get dropouts) when I went from a longer cat6 Ethernet cable to a shorter cat7 cable with the Teac, so if you aren’t already at cat7 you might try that. I’m just using a cheap Amaz...

The Teac is a giant killer for $2k. Teac is parent company of Esoteric, regarded by many as the leader in digital technology. Lots of Esoteric tech creep down into that $2k product. Virtually everyone on Agon or other forums who has gotten one rav...

Which combination of components (Streamer, DAC, Preamp, Amp, etc.) are most future-proof?
