Personally I would replace the Streamer with a top end CD and turntable
Turntable I can kind of get. Can't see why people rate CD players these days. Bits are bits...... and the convenience of being able to access all of my music is a huge driver.

Surely the problem with streaming is getting the bits in the best quality, not all streaming services are the same
While being an analogue fan, streaming is so nice and easy.
Bought two Michi M8 lately.
They only do the low frequencies up to 400hz, via an electronic cross over equivalent of the 801D4 low pass, that is bridged now.
Mcintosh for the mid/high over the internal passive cross over.
Very impressive; good live performances, FEEL very live now too!

I just read that and I have NO idea what any of it means (not all the pages, obvs)

It means that this recent Topping, produces the best test results ever measured till now and sets the upper standard.
Sounds great too, more important of course.
And its a bargain.
You will have to invest >3K to maybe(!) get better results/sound.

"Where do you want me to put these heaters Mr Neve?
