Hi,
I just think to simplify my stereo setup (TV optical / rpi volumio / rme dac / ncore amp), with a compact all-in-one solution.
No fancy stuffs, just an amplifier with optical/coax/hdmi input for the TV and streaming (upnp and spotify, playback/volume controlled with smartphone app)... and good measurements
There are some options: Naim Atom, NAD M10, Primare i15, powernode 2i... but no way to test all of them.
I just tried the naim, and the sound quality was not as good as my current setup. (and UI flaws)
Maybe an other way is to build a diy amp, with my current ncore module, a rpi/odroid and a good dac/preamp hat (with hdmi or optical input for TV)
But not find any similar project on the web, so I guess it would be to much work
Do you have any recommendations ?
