Hi,
Excuse first my poor english
I'm quite new in hifi
After many years without a decent hifi setup, Santa Claus V2022 brought me a little setup.
I'm now discovering again my digital library
Quick description :
NAS (Qnap TS-230) -> an Old Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 - SM-P600 with BubbleUPnP -> Streamer/DAC IEAST AUDIOCAST PRO M50 Chip ESS ES9023 (RJ45 with NAS) -> Toslink -> Aiyma T9 -> Eltax Monitor III
You also have to know this setup stands in a 100m² living room
Everything works and sound great but i definitely don't have an real audiophile earing (some tintinus problems...)
Anyway.
For now, i'm wondering if it would be a good idea to boost the AMP part of this setup :
Q1 : Regarding the size of my living room, should i use the T9 as a pre-amp and add a more powerful Class D Amp (like Aiyima A07 ?) base on this (yellow) wiring diagram ?
Q2 : Can my little bookshelf Eltax allow more power without suffering ?
Q3 : Could i get significant enhancement by adding a dedicaded budget DAC (like SMSL SANSKRIT, Topping D10, ...) in replacement of the integrated ESS 9023 chip of the Streamer ?
Thx !
Regards
