I just can't decide on what to choose.
I can't demo any of these units as im in South Africa.
What's going to sound better ?
I already have AE1 Active's. & the Cxn v2.
Cxn v2 or Eversolo dmp-a6 as the source and pre amp.
Or sell the AE1 Active speakers.
Get a Uniti Atom and speakers ?
But what speakers.
Or a Hifi Rose 520 and speakers ?

Confused about it all.
I haven't received the Cxn V2 yet as a friend will bring it back to South Africa for me in a month.
And when I bought the Cxn V2 the Eversolo dmp-a6 hadn't been released.
The main reason I like the Atom is for the Hdmi.

Bluesound Node or Powernode, current version. They both have HDMI and quite a bit cheaper than the equipment you listed.

I can't answer all your questions all at once, but there's a simple trick to making a decision: Not all products are superior to one other in terms of sound quality; after a certain point, thay are all the same. That point is where the technical fidelity of the equipment surpasses human hearing. DMP-A6 is already at that point so you can be certain that there is no "better" device over it. Anything can be just as good or worse, but never better.

Another point is that sound quality is NOT everything when it comes to decision criteria. This is even more true as the complexity of the audio equipment increases, as it is for network streamer/dac/pre-amp AIO devices.
