I've been offered a Cairn Fog 2 for £280, lots of good reviews online so got me thinking about upgrading my current CDP, a Rotel RCD 965 Discrete
2 questions:
1. Any other CDPs for £300 to consider? Or
2. My Rotel has a coaxial output, so I think I can use it as transport? Meaning I could get a DAC instead, which should also improve my streaming experience as I currently use the inbuilt DAC in my Chromecast Audio. Streaming is probably 50% of my listening
So a DAC seems like a better way to spend the money? And if so, any DAC recommendations please?? Ideally with a decent PSU built in as running out of space for boxes!
