Buy a purpose-built streamer/bridge and get all of that noise and jitter out of your system. If you use a good streamer/bridge you don't need other devises and additional cables in your signal path that are trying to clean up the garbage you're dumping into your digital signal path from your PC/MAC. What's the point of upgrading your DAC if you're using a shit source?

merging Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 IMHO solaris is a "worse" dac than RME. Equally, the headphone section is simply fantastic with a thd + n of -114db. Measurements are not everything, but the subjective is less. Its IEM output is possibly the best in the current market and all in a pack of 1000 eur. My DAD ax32 interface is certainly better, as is a merging horus, but at a much higher price. Link to comment
