Tonto Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 I was thinking about this in another thread, how about aswell as a reference system have a current $BBB$ Best Bang for Buck or Beer Budget System! It could either be as simple as a cheap option for an existing computer setup for people to dip their toes into the murky depths of CA. And/Or a system setup that offers the best performance for the money in CA terms (ie before improvements are outweighed by cost). Eg Server-Software-Streamer-DAC. Usabillty must remain high though. This will be highly subjective but will allow for lively discourse! Thoughts?? My idea of a beer budget setup - Old PC + Media Monkey + DevilSound USB DAC + Current Stereo Setup My idea of a Best Bang for Buck - Mac Mini + ITunes + Cambridge DAC Magic + Current Stereo Setup* (of course this can be broken down again) So I wanna see others takes on the above and would this be a worthy addition to the forum?

Mr.C Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 computer ----> ART DI/O or MF V-dac ----> ART sla-1 ----> PSB alpha's or B&W 685. computer ----> ART DI/O or MF V-dac ----> active monitors (I'm thinking Adam A7s, but they aren't beer budget). Link to comment
