I have, but I don't know why it would be better than Tidal?

That makes sense. The node is a bit over my budget, but not out of the realm of possibility. What are your thoughts about how big an upgrade this is over the wiim pro plus or ultra for sound (DAC) I assume.

What are your favourite top 5 sounding songs that don't show in the typical audiophiles handbook? I'll add a couple here, in an attempt to be a bit off the beaten track... 1) Spirits - The Strumbellas 2) Pompeii - Bastille 3) Castles - Freya Ridings 4) Ode to My Family - The Cranberries 5)...

Man...I was only asking for some guidance here. So many comments above were 'misses'... I stated I had an external DAC and phono stage. I stated the price I could afford in CDN and USD ($750). I was serious because I was looking for some help to upgrade. Tough reception for a noob here..jesus

Its a bit out of my price range at about $1,800 cdn (USED)

I am considering a new amp. What would you recommend, or would you recommend sticking with what I have? Setup is: Amp: Yahama S-N602 Streamer and DAC: Wiim Pro Plus (I use the internal DAC of this instead of the Yamaha) Turntable: Rega Planar 2 going into a Mani 2 phono stage (I use this rather...
