DAC-V1 for 272?

Posted by: Dan43 on 04 August 2015

I have a second system which is NAP100/DAC-V1 with PMC DB1i running of a Unitiserve (now Audirvana off the MBP laptop) US staying with NDS for now.

Really intrigued by the 272/250DR systems being built and bought, HH has a good thread running, but wondering if a 272 would work well with NAP100/DB1i with DAC-V1 in exchange then grow that system to a 250DR with speaker to match down the line.

HH - I wondered about a streaming Roberts radio. Presumably via wifi? Which model do you have?

It's the black, old fashioned looking one. Very nice it is too. It cost about £200.
