Anyone heard any differences between streamers (streamer only, not DAC)? Or better yet, done any blind testing of different streamers (not using any built in DAC). I am asking about only the streamer hooked to an external dac with a high quality streaming service? Thanks.
Yes. I own 2 iFi Zen Streams (Office and home), a Wiim Mini, a Wiim Pro, and have also have used two Macs and a Windows PC. The Zen’s (especially with a linear power supply) trounce the Wiims. The Wiims are a little better than the Mac Mini, which is a whole lot better than the HP Elitebook.
