I currently play music of varying qualities, that has been ripped to a hard drive, connected via USB2.0 to an Oppo 205
I then send it digitally to an Anthem AVM50v for processing and on to an Arcam FMJ P7 and so on
The Oppo has, I believe, has 2 DACs and the Anthem has 5 DACS
I'd like to be able to play Internet radio and have access to Internet music streaming services like Tidal masters, Qobuz, etc, In the highest possible quality
Are there any single box solutions that can do this without built in DACs and speaker outputs, that I can connect to either the Oppo or Anthem and use the DACs in them?
Or do I need a box with another DAC to 'Interpret' the Tidal MQA?
I've recently started looking into music streamers but I am finding it a little confusing and most equipment I've been looking at seems to have lots of features I don't really need.
Any comments would be appreciated
