Hi All,
I just started with discussing about only streaming and DAC few days ago but I think I get lost in this forum and I'm ready to change everything. (as my current set up has 20 years +)
So those are the facts. I have around 20 m^2 room. I'm listening mainly to rock / pop / jazz / electronic music.
I'm living in Poland and I want to listen to the set before buying. I'm adding Polish / Europe prices here.
My ideas to check:
- Source: as discussed in streamer / DAC thread - WiiM Pro Plus - 280 EUR + UMIK-1 to play with REW - 150 EUR
- Amp - Apollon NCx500ST or NAD C298 - 1500 EUR, no preamp probably is needed
- Speakers - 2x KEF R7 (non meta) - 2300 EUR
- Sub - I think I can use rest (around 700 EUR) for 1 sub. KEF Kube 12B should be within the limits.
I'm seeing a problem with connecting sub (not sure if RCA splitter is best option).
The idea may be change source to WiiM Pro (non Plus) + SMSL DA 100 combination.
What do you think ?
