    DAC/receiver - Bluetooth aptX plus WiFi

    Any recommendation for a good DAC that does both, WiFi as well as Bluetooth aptX? Is there such a thing? Or should I not bother with WiFi - is aptX Bluetooth now comparable to WiFi in terms of sound quality (all given a fast, reliable network)? Debating between either adding a DAC between my...

    Streaming system on a budget: Old vs new? Cable vs wireless?

    Chromecast Ultra into Denon AVR-3500H.... good enough?

    Hello everybody, I should start out by saying that I am not nearly the perfectionist that many people on this forum are. I mostly listen to Spotify and Plex FLAC for my music. I’m thinking about going back to Tidal, but need to know if my current setup is worth it or if any relatively simple...

    My experience leaving Spotify/Chromecast Audio and Moving to Deezer/Bluesound Node 2i

    So a bit ago I posted a thread asking for some advice to fix a couple issues I was having with Spotify/Chromecast Audio, and I didn't get any responses, so I decided to make some adjustments and share my experience in the event anyone else might be in the same boat. My previous streaming setup...

    Connectivity: USB DAC vs. network connection (wifi or ethernet)

    Apologies if this was addressed elsewhere on this forum. I'm setting an office/kitchen 2.0 system and haven't been able to find good answers on this. I'm considering picking up a new (or used) receiver, and not clear on whether I need a network receiver or a simple USB DAC (the one I'm looking...
