| Best Music Streamer to pair with Rogue Audio monoblocks and Pre-Amp @audophil1 You missed my point. I am not a huge fan of that Mytec DAC either. I did a shootout with a friend of 4 different DACs, and the Brooklyn was my least favorite (vs. Okto, DCS Bartok, and Gold Note DS10). Obviously DACs sound very diff... | |
| Solo streamer @rvpiano I’m speechless. Over the course of 3 hours, you went from the N200 being over your budget to ordering one? To quote Chief Brody: “You’re gonna need a bigger boat.” (As in, better spend a lot more on a DAC, lol!) | |
| Solo streamer …or even $2400. | |
| Solo streamer oh dear. You have a $1900 DAC - not a criticism, btw, that’s still a lot of $; 3 of my 4 DACs cost less, two of them considerably so. So I wouldn’t think you’d want to spend $6300 or even $3500 on a streamer. And btw, Benchmark is on record as ... | |
| Solo streamer Reasonably priced options: iFi Zen Streamer, Pro-Ject S2 Ultra Streambox, Primare NP5 Prisma, Volumio Rivo. Am big proponent of putting money where it matters most, which is DAC, not streamer. Here’s a link to a recent thread where competing pe... | |
| Best Music Streamer to pair with Rogue Audio monoblocks and Pre-Amp @audphile1 Your experience is exactly what the data on jitter from the M3 with network card would have predicted.

| Best Music Streamer to pair with Rogue Audio monoblocks and Pre-Amp @jetter Thanks! Love your system too. Where did you get your TD-160? | |
| Best Music Streamer to pair with Rogue Audio monoblocks and Pre-Amp @audphile1 oh yeah??? Note: 3rd grade level response, like yours. | |
| Best Music Streamer to pair with Rogue Audio monoblocks and Pre-Amp @audphile1 Please don’t speak for me, you’re wrong on the facts. @soix It’s really not all about you, I was asking the OP if it was helpful, not you, lol! Be that as it may, I have been streaming since 2004 - I was a very early adopter, obvio... | |
| Best Music Streamer to pair with Rogue Audio monoblocks and Pre-Amp To the OP: As you can see, there are some on this forum whose beliefs/experiences suggest that you need to spend a material portion of your budget - relative to your DAC - on the streamer. There are others, like me, whose beliefs/experiences s... | |

| Best Music Streamer to pair with Rogue Audio monoblocks and Pre-Amp @soix yes, I know, we all look the same to you, | |
| Best Music Streamer to pair with Rogue Audio monoblocks and Pre-Amp @soix btw, Alvin? Did you mean Amir? | |
| Best Music Streamer to pair with Rogue Audio monoblocks and Pre-Amp @soix Lol! Well there’s your proof! I assert that the”vast majority agree with me” (though without a poll). You must be right. What was I thinking? |
