Hey everyone.
Just got the news that the Dialog I ordered won't ship until mid-late March. Sad face.
So I am currently looking at an interim streaming option u too then or even use if it's good enough!
My current setup is a Mac Mini rubbing Windows 7, JRiver and JRemote but I find it a little cumbersome. Especially now I've signed up to Tidal, I mainly play through AirPlay through my iPhone to an airport express and optical to my Devialet 120 (to PMC Twenty.23's).
However, the AirPlay sounds thin, quite hard, especially sibilance on vocals / radio thus not overly enjoyable. But I like its simplicity.
So I'm looking at:
- Sonos connect (magna Ultimo)
- Bluesound node
- Naim (uniti qute 2 for example or ND5 XS)
Any more recommendations under £1k that can do Spotify, Tidal, Internet radio, NAS / UPnP??
Also, will these sound better than my current AirPort Express via optical or is there something else going on with my rig?
Ta,
Stuart
