Streaming questions
Quote from AMikita on 15 May 2025, 12:09 AMHello Pedja,
Do you have any plans to come out with an Audial streamer? If not, can you suggest any existing streamers that you feel pair particularly well with the S5b DAC? I am currently using my Roon Nucleus' USB out to the S5b and it works well, but I can't help but wonder if a dedicated streamer would provide audible improvements.
If there are any others reading this with streamer suggestions, please share.
Thanks!

For now, I have no plans to release a streamer.
Streamers can perform nicely, however I personally do not use them, so I'd better refrain from giving advice.
We already had some recommendations from other Audial DACs users, elsewhere on this forum, but I also hope that here we can have some more.
