Hi folks,
So i'm putting together a system which will comprise of the following-
Mcintosh C28 preamp
Mcintosh MC2505 Amp
Pioneer PL-7 turntable (this was our old TT from india from back in the 80's, my dad just brought it from india)
Martin Logan Ascents
I listen to a very wide variety of music, from Michael Jackson, Jamiroquai, Police, Sinatra, Adele, Ella Fitz, Coldplay, 311, Armin Van bureen, etc, etc.
I have xfinity 150mbps to the home, so fairly big bandwidth
Apple extreme router, with 3 express routers acting as extenders.
I'd like to be able to add an external DAC to the preamp to access music from the following sources-
Spotify from my iPhone, preferably wirelessly, either BT or wifi
DI.fm from my iPhone, either BT or wifi
Spotify or DI.FM from ipad/microsoft surface via USB
music that is on my pc, that won't be at the same location of the Mcintosh's, considering putting it on a NAS so its easier to access...
I've been researching quite a few of them (Schitt, JoLida Tube DAC wireless, Arcam, Wadia, etc) and really don't know which is the best one for me.
I'm open to used (preloved) equipment as well, so would love to get some recommendations.
Thoughts?
Thanks in advance!
