So what does that leave us? For a truly impressive high resolution material, there is only the high resolution recorded music. Such as the https://www.soundliaison.com/ When music is actually captured in high resolution gear to begin with, such as their DXD 352,8 kHz, ONE MIC recording with minimal processing of any kind.... Well, that is the ONE to listen to! Jaw drop... My friend is still listening to his Krell Studio DAC and MD20 transport from more than 25 years ago. It sounds awesome on REDBOOK.

Off-topic but this is my own thread.
Krell among a few others used to build some seriously good looking gear back in the day. I don't think Dan D'Agostino has ever changed on the aesthetics are important philosophy. http://www.hifitimereview.com/krell-md-20-cd-transport/ http://www.vintagehificlub.com/wp-co...13/06/md20.jpg Last edited by PHC1; 12-13-2020 at 01:49 PM. |

I always wanted one of those Krell disc spinners. Don’t hear much about them anymore.

The question and the debate as far as I know, still remains the USB to DAC from a computer is not as good as a streamer? Has anyone actually compared those scenarios? Roon core straight to DAC vs Roon via streamer? |

Serge, I'm only a Roon newbie. But as far as I understand, you need a Roon endpoint also. A core can't directly stream to a DAC. Of course there are Roon cores that are renderers also, like my streamer (which also upsamples and reclocks everything).

Developed in partnership with Intel, the Nucleus sits on your network acting as a Roon Server Core for your NAS or USB drive-based music library. Roon can also stream from your Tidal account and make it all available to any and every Roon endpoint you have. Roon built a custom based operating system around the Intel NUC board. The Nucleus is housed in a special casing and runs fanless so it can be placed with your hi-fi equipment if you want to connect it via USB to your DAC. |
