I agree and would bet your source is the "major" problem.

If you use a regular purchased CD how does it sound?

If you are going to stream then see if the CDP has a digital input and use your iPhone to stream. It's better than using the sound card on your other devices.

Remember your source is about the most important piece of your audio system. Crap in equals louder Crap out.

Traditionally Focal's are on the "brighter" side. However if you are going the digital route, which I agree and did myself years ago, you should look into a better DAC. Look into the Marantz NA7004 or similar models. Then start looking into either sites or services to stream from that suite your musical taste.

What do you listen too most of the time?
