I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on my first real hifi system, and looking for general input on the components I'm planning to put together - especially where the budget is being well spent, and where it might be less effective.
Yamaha WXC-50 streamer
Ayre CODEX DAC
Parasound Halo HINT 6 integrated amplifier
Paradigm Founder 100F speakers
Does that sound like a reasonable build? I'm relatively confident the speakers are the right units, but I find myself wondering if I've been up-sold - effectively buying three separate DACs in the setup. Could a parasound A23+ and the Yamaha's DAC deliver a similar end result?
Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
