RE: ahendler and John Elison...


For me, I have found that 24/96 from the $300 HRT LineStreamer+ produced outstanding results and 24/192 from the $1800 PS Audio NuWave Phono Converter was not a step up. I didn't bother with DSD even though the PS Audio ADC will do it. My previous experiences with DSD told me that for my ears, 24/96 PCM is all I need. YMMV.

In fairness to the PS Audio NuWave Phono Converter on pricing, it includes a quality phono preamp and can convert to higher resolutions including DSD. With the HRT LineStreamer+ you use your existing phono preamp. In my case, I have a capable phono preamp and found that 24/96 (the best the HRT can do) was just right so I couldn't justify the price difference.
