| Upgrade speakers or DAC When upgrading I tend to go with whatever the weakest link is at the time, and in your case I think the streamer is your weakest link by a good margin. I’d encourage you to look at Aurender, Grimm, and Innuos as well. Best of luck. | |

| Used speaker suggestion for Levinson 383 Integrated amp What sound characteristics are you looking for, and what did you not like about the Revels? | |
| Denafrips Pontus *15th* ? For those of you using an Iris, Hermes, or Gaia DDC, are you using those DDCs with a computer or with a streamer? I'm wondering if the benefits of using a DDC are audible when used with a streamer that inherently has less noise. @calvinandhobbe... | |
| Shout out to Revival Audio Atalante 3 speakers They hired a well respected design studio in France to come up with the looks and it’s a combination of an old world speaker look with a Japanese flourish.

| speakers that are a little laid back in the mids So how far were the fronts of the speakers from the wall? | |
| Best streamer, don't want Roon, don't want a screen, A DAC is OK but not necessary WiiM Pro $200. Why pay more? You have ears and care about sound quality. 🙄 | |
| Best streamer, don't want Roon, don't want a screen, A DAC is OK but not necessary Innuos Pulse. Great streamer with a great app. | |
| CEC Belt Drive CD Transports vs Jay's Audio CD Transports I was debating between Jays and the Project CD Box RS2 T, and decided on the RS2….for now. @kennyc Not sure if you’ve seen but the RS2 has had more than its share of reliability issues. Might wanna add this Shanling ET3 to your list as it’s ge... | |
