I have a DAC (Schitt Bifrost) that I like. If I buy a basic Bluetooth receiver, like the Emotiva BTR-1, with digital output and run it through the DAC, is there any reason to consider an all-in-one streamer, like the Bluesound Node, for example? Do they have benefits over a simple BT receiver and DAC? I mostly listen to Spotify when streaming.

    I went with a used Yamaha CX-A5000. It’s a quality Preamp, DAC and has enough streaming for me. I do Spotify only. It cost me less than $500 and it drives my MacIntosh amp.
