As you can see from my signature below, I have a CDA2 preamp/CDP/DAC. Based on the system I have, does anyone know if adding the chord QBD76 would improve the sound of playing uncompressed files from the NAS through the Sonos ZP90 connected into a QBD76 connected in turn to the analogue inputs of the preamp compared to connecting the Sonos ZP90 into the DAC of the CDA2 with digital connections? If so, would the sound be vastly improved or only a tiny bit?
I am not interested in upgrading any of the kit as I am very happy with it and not had it long but I have a chance of obtaining a Chord QBD76. I know the answer is to listen for myself but the DAC is 100 miles away and I have to either buy it or not. I am prepared to add to the system if it will significantly give even better sound. The DAC is not the HD version.
Hope the above makes sense, I look forward to your comments.
