Excellent comparison! Definitely a fan of many of these streamers. Thanks for the video.
Glad you enjoyed!
Helpful info being in the market for one of these.
Glad it was helpful!
What a great list, love the range in price points.
Thank you!
How does the Cambridge CXN100 compare to the Eversolo units? Particularly for Roon users that don’t need the touch screen.
Both are excellent. Please reach out to our team to discuss or if you are in our area, make an appointment to come in and compare the two. Thanks for watching
The chord DACs sound amazing.
Yes they do! Thanks for sharing
Great video, my vote is for the Naim and Chord, as these are the best of the best.
Thank you. Yes, those are both excellent units.
Great comparison.
Thanks!
Hi. Nice video.
Question I love the Zen DAC, is there a way to connect from a streamer like WiiM to Zen DAC since it only have usb b input.
Thanks, sorry the Zen Dac is designed for more desktop/laptop use. Thanks for watching
@@AudioAdvice thanks for your kind reply. There’s not converter of some sort right?
Can you recommend a DAC/Streamer to add I to an existing older Onkyo Dplby Pro Logic Receiver and CD player system that does double duty as a Home Theater and 2 speaker stereo? I'd like to add digital streaming to my home system and upgrade the DAC capabilities in the early nineties Onkyo CD changer that I have and use it with my existing Onkyo receiver. Thanks in advance for any help or advice you can offer.
For your system the Bluesound Node would be a great choice. www.audioadvice.com/bluesound-node-wireless-music-streamer. Thanks for watching
@AudioAdvice thank you very much I'll check it out
I’ve done this and use my Onkyo for home surround and as a pre-amp for music.
I’m using the Node into a Denafrips Iris DDC and that into the Pontus II DAC.
The surround speakers are powered by the Onkyo and the Left/Right by a Cambridge Edge W Power Amp.
Sounds amazing.
Using Tidal now because Apple Music through the Mac was really laggy.
There are some great options here.
There certainly are!
Man, all but the NAD don't like XLR outputs apparently. I wonder if you've tried/sold/have an opinion on the Benchmark DAC 2/3 in comparison to these pieces?
We have no experience with the Benchmark but it is supposed to be pretty good.
You should do a "Best under X" video. Cost is really the only factor with a device like this.
Thanks. We normally do every year or so and should have some out in 2024.
Where is WIIM?
I am a happy owner of Rose rs 250 streamer for about a year but i would like to upgrade to Aurender a200 or newest NAD M66. How you will compare Rose rs 250 vs NAD M66 in terms of sound quality,workmanship of the unit as well theirs applications for use.Thanks
Oh, that is a tough one. If you do not have a great room, the NAD will give you all the advantages of Dirac. Please reach out to our team to go over the other differences. Thanks for watching
Value for money: I recommend to audition the Atoll ST300 Signature pre-amp / DAC / streamer 😊
Any love for the DCS Lina DAC or other DCS products? Upgradable both software and hardware
Sorry, we are not a DCS dealer, but they do make some of the best uber high end DACs. Thanks for watching
Have you tried Dayton Audio dsp-lf?
I’m not sure how that piece of gear even relates to this discussion, or is it just a random question?
Sorry no we have not.
Hi, thank you for the video... I have an odd question, FIP, which is an excellent radio praised by worldwide audiophiles for its eclecticism and sound quality, was on Tune-In, but the Radio France group which it belongs to didn't renew the contract with Tune-In this year and a lot of people listening to it on Tune-In till they remove it don't know where to turn now for having it natively streaming vs bluetoothing it from phone or computer. But this radio station (and the others belonging to the group) can be found as an app. though, be it on Android or Apple Store. If you see me coming, you will have guessed my question, which is Is there any streamer which allows today to stream directly or semi directly from one of these apps. I think I saw some using Alexa or Apple Play but not too sure of the method... Any insight on the subject would be really welcome if you have the time... Thank you.
Interesting. You can side load some apps on the Eversolo gear, but we are not sure if that is one of them.
Mind boggling choices.... but I am still confused why so few streamers support Amazon Music natively...
Thanks! We are not sure but our guess would be they charge a lot to be able to offer it.
greetings from Indonesia
Thanks for watching and welcome!
Chord Qutest is amazing .....😊
Yes, its a sleeper. Thanks for watching.
So there is a correlation with your picks and contracts you have with the brands you sell in your shop.
Of course there is. We have never hidden the fact we are a dealer. And while we don’t have everything, we do carry almost all of the popular brands. Thanks for watching
Wiim
Cxn 100 didn’t make the list?
That is a good one too. Our team voted on their top picks at the different price points. Thanks for watching
Dollar for Dollar which is the best?
There are a lot of variables. Please reach out to our team at www.audioadvice.com to discuss your system. Thank you for watching
@AudioAdvice how about just pick 1 out of what you juat reviewed or are you not allowed but the company?
@@jamiesmith8307it all depends on your budget and system. You can discuss more options with our team.
@AudioAdvice dollar for dollar which is better. The more you spend the law of diminishing return hits hard so it's a simple question. Paid $20,000 over say the Bluesound for $500 your not gettimg $19,500 better sound are ya.
@@jamiesmith8307please list for us the components in your system
No Wiim?
These streaming services are all temporary due to their constant tweaking of quality. People will just move on to another when they drop quality. That makes some permanent interfaces just wasted spaces that are stuck on your device.
That is possible but with many you can choose the services that show up on your app. Thanks for watching
Chord mojo driving any headphones, really? It was struggling driving my easy to drive focal celestee, no punch/slam in the bass, no texture exposed, double bass sounded like an electric one, the crossfeet muddy's the sound up and the same goes to the EQ. all that for the moderated price of 700 lol this is a gadget that's not worth anyone attention unless you run EIM's, but of course I don't run a buisness out of audio...
Guy really knows what he is talking about... also he gives me the jeebies.. like a serial killer would. sorry
Geez. Glad you enjoyed the info.
Chord and Naim are ugly products in my opinion. I will never own any of those. While sound is important, I have to live with the way they look as well. Node X is currently the best Node option. Nice comparison. Thanks.
Glad you liked the comparison. Thanks for watching
