Looking for advice on a possible upgrade to Matrix Audio Element I
Current system is:
Chromecast Audio > Topping D50 > Naim NAP100 - Dynaudio M10s
Only music source is streaming from Tidal or Qubuz. No CDs or local files.
I want to get rid of some cables and improve sound quality so I’m planning to replace the Chromecast/D50 with an all in one streamer/DAC.
I’m considering the Element I. I’m hoping some members have this model, are using it with streaming services and can advise on one or more of the following.
1) Is this an overkill just to stream from Tidal or Qobuz?
2) How good is the MA Remote App? for example, how does it compare with the native Tidal App.
3) Should there be a noticeable improvement in sound quality.
