If it has to be Apple Music consider the Eversolo Play and spend the rest on speakers. I'd even consider getting the original model Klipsch Sevens for $800 on Amazon. Your proposed system seems overly fussy even for an audiophile.

A little outside the box, but right now Amazon has renewd Klipsch The Sevens active speakers on sale for $799.https://www.amazon.com/Klipsch-Heritage-Inspired-Powered-Speakers/dp/B0DVBMN3D4/?th=1 They're very well-reviewed and offer 100 watts per channel, a built in DAC, a sub output, and phono, dig

Why would a streamer DAC amplifier last longer than powered speakers? I guess it is less costly to replace a Wiim than powered speakers. Anything with an app needing set up on a mobile phone isn't going to last as long as passive and active speakers do. If you consider ever going into surround sound

I definitely understand and was anticipating Eversolo Play recommendations. Personally I don't mind plugging my phone or laptop in to get lossless. I've seen mixed reviews on the Eversolo regarding its standby mode, Airplay connectivity (which my fiancée would almost certainly still use over the nat

There can be made a good argument for either.Active speakers can be very convenient for bluetooth speakers, soundbars or smaller stereo setups (Klipsch the fives, Sevens for instance). If you are thinking of serious HiFi or Home theater: Personally I would always go for passive speakers. I want the

Use the eq in the app to tame the bass a little and maybe turn the treble down a few notches. Get a sub to to really open up your experience. Ive had fives for a few years in my secondary setup with our TV and they've exceed my expectations. The fives/sevens/nines are the only klipsch speakers I wou

The more I do this, the more I lean towards used new/newer, or open box. I love vintage from the mid 60s to very early 80s and may have more than a number of folks, but ultimately I'm beginning to feel like the work involved in vintage may not quite manage to meet the listening payoff when everythin
