Looking for some thoughts, ideas or opinions regarding upgrading my digital system and getting a better eargasm.
I have a Squeezebox Classic > Channel Island VDA2 DAC. Both of these components are several years old.
I'm looking at getting the new Schiit Multibit Bifrost to replace the Channel Island. Just wondering if there would be a significant difference???
OR
Replace the Squeezebox with the Bluesound Node 2 or the Auralic Aries Mini and use their internal DACs. A couple of the reviews on the Node have been favorable, but no reviews on the Aries Mini yet.
I do have a Q. When I use the Squeezebox, does it just pass through the 0s and 1s and the external DAC takes over 100% or does the Squeezebox play a role, too? Because if it does, then it may make sense to upgrade to the Aries or Node 2 and a new DAC in the future.
Thanks
