So if you avoid vinyl and shop cheap for all else you can do it for 25k. The system I use was put together over many decades with many false starts that cost money but in and of ... | |
| Lumin U2 mini vs Mac laptop sound test I use a Blue Sound Node and it is a bit grainy but after all it is just streaming. I also won’t use an intergrated amp without a DAC. I wish HiFI Rose 150 came with. | |
