I understand a lot of people prefer an attractive simple system, my own preference would be for a DAC with an integrated streamer.
It's personal preference to some degree, and I was just putting forward a better performing option for those interested in seeing alternatives. The reality is that you are paying for something readily available at half the price, and with more power. The hypex amps with their extra power provide a lot of flexibility with speaker selection, which is more important to me. They run cool and can be placed out of sight, so you will still only see the one box in any case, which can also be controlled by a remote.
IMO the only upside with the Cambridge is for those wishing to connect a turntable and require an analogue input. In that case I would get a secondhand Benchmark DAC 2, which when combined with the hypex amp would be the same money as the Cambridge.
My 2c as they say.
