My system primarily is analog. I have Technics SL-1500C turntable, EAR 834P phono preamp, a Yaqin MS-34C EL34 SET integrated and Tekrton speakers. I'm looking for something to play back the 50 or so albums I have in 24/96 and 24/192 FLAC format. I can put them on USB2 or 3 Flash drives, SD Cards or USB SSDs. I know anout the Logitech Squeezeboxes but are there other alternatives? I simple intuitive user interface is a must. Thanks in advice for any ideas. My spending limit is $500. Opus 33 1/3 |

The FiiO M11 would be my choice. It costs $400. It uses AKM DAC chips and unfortunately the AKM factory was destroyed by fire. Consequently, the FiiO M11 is no longer available at the ordinary places such as Amazon and B&H Photo. However, there appears to be one for sale on eBay. It will play all digital formats up through DSD256 directly from its plugin micro SD memory cards. It has a one-megapixel touch screen and two micro SD memory card ports with the capability to address up to four terabytes. |
