HI Guys,
Would like to get your opinion and advice on this:
Currently I listen to music in my Study (4x5m) and Living room (5x14m)
I recently started to rip my music to lossless format onto NAS.
Study:
PC, NAS, router, sonos:amp paired with old KEF Cresta 1
Living:
Sonos:connect digital wired to Yamaha A595a receiver and paired with KEF Cresta 2, also Sony CD XB930
To improve the quality of my music sound, should I consider a DAC for both rooms?
I've been researching a bit into Audioengine D1, arcam irdac, NAD 1050 and for speakers....Q Acoustic Concept 20s, B&W 685S2, 684 floorstander
I have to be honest, I'm a bit lost to where to even start.
I went to the B&W showroom today and listened to 685 S2 and 684 S2.....jazz music....adored it, but they were powering them with their exceptional equipment.
Currently theres a 684 (old version) for same price as new 685 S2 + stand
My thinking.....get new speakers for Living room, sonos connect--->D1 DAC----->yamaha receiver------>685S2 or 684 or Q Acoustic
Study: move my big KEF Cresta into Study and just cotinue to use the internal dac of the sonos:connect amp
thoughts?
thanks in advance
