Let’s have a cold beer and listen to Diana Krall 'Like Someone In Love’
Oops, a PowerPlant 12, not 3. And I stream via the Bridge II card in the DS DAC – which I’m probably going to replace with a Sonore player – ultra- or opticalRendu. Or a Roon box solution maybe? My system sounds really good streaming now, but so many posters dis the Bridge II and rave about Sonore and Roon players.
Had exactly the same path as @AceRimmer - ultraRendu was a great Roon solution for a while, but the Lumin T2 is in a different league SQ wise (and $$ wise of course, but worth every cent!).
Nice big speaker stands.
Are you in Europe or the UK? I tried to get Cirrus 7 (in Germany, I think) to ship their PC cases to US. They wouldn’t even reply my inquiries.
TT or TT2? If TT2…then I would likely agree…and suggest even better SQ. Recently, I home tested TT2+LUMIN U1 mini vs Lumin T2 vs Qutest+Lumin T2 vs Lumin T2+TT2. Lumin T2’s DAC was equal but different to the Qutest IMO. The TT2 brings the sound into another level. I kept my Lumin U1 mini and bought the TT2.
