Hi Everybody,
My current listening scheme is iphone 4 apple lossless files> Airplay wifi > AppleTV (latest) > optical > Bryston SP2/DAC > Bryston 6bSST > Magnepan 1.7. It sounds nice, and gosh its convenient.
I have compared this to Oppo BDP 83> optical >SP2/DAC, and Oppo BDP 83> analog > SP2 analog
To me, they all sound different, with definite difference in volume, and seeming difference in EQ, but I'm trying to decide if there is a definite improvement in overall SQ. From what I have learned here it seems any decent DAC and decent bit rate will sound the same.
So questions:
1) Does iphone to wifi to apple TV optical out result in any signal degradation enough to make make a difference?
2) Is there any benefit to going to the wired digital player method such as Logitech Squeezebox, or even pricier Bryston BDP
Thanks!
