Over the years I have accumulated several pieces of what I consider decent stereo equipment. I am constantly swapping out this or that and I will continue to collect and tweak.
Here is my current setup before I got it all hooked up:
Heathkit AA-1600, AP-1600, refoamed Baby Advent ii's
I also have the following:
Advent Loudspeaker- refoamed and recapped, Exteriors still need attention
Electrostatic - pristine exterior need foam
Genesis - need foam
Jensons - pulled from console, need boxes
I also have the SS amp from the console that I plan to play around with.
My source is my Windows 10 Machine running JRiver. I am in the process of converting my library to flac. I am just using the 3.5mm out from the machine (Realtek ALC892). Would I benefit from a DAC? I don't have money burning a whole in my pocket but if I can improve my setup by tossing $50-$100 at it I can swing that. I don't have any complaints with my setup, I just want to sneak up on "better".
What is the next logical upgrade for this system? I am currently moving into a slightly bigger space, 12'x13' with 9' ceilings.
