Does anyone have any experience with pairing a DAC/Preamp/EQ combo with the Stratos that they really enjoy (or really don't like would be helpful too).
I'd like to stay around $1,000, but am OK with used gear. All of my music is digital, so a phono stage is not needed.
Streaming ability is a plus.
EQ/Room Correction is a plus.
Ones that I am considering...
NAD C658
MINIDSP SHD
RME ADI-2
Thanks.
