DACs In the Lumin T2 League

[AudioFi]

I need some advice for finding a DAC to use my Lumin T2 as a streamer.

I like the detailed and a bit clinical sound of the T2 w sbooster in my system, but sometimes I would like to use it just as a streamer, and find a good USB DAC with a warmer and more relaxed sound with a comparable or superior quality of the T2.

It's curious how the perception of music is so subjective, and sometimes after a long day or feeling just tired a sound too detailed can be fatiguing.

I set up an Eq in my MA8900 lowering a little bit the 10k and 2k knobs and works well, but I would prefer to try a Dac that sounds liquid and relaxed with no EQ.

The DA1 DAC module in the MA8900 is warmer sounding but sounds inferior to my ears.

All your suggestions are well appreciated.
