I am in the same boat as you and wondering if Thorsten could chime in here regarding his products to supply a better signal to the DAC. Currently I am on Xp with .083 Foobar. I will be upgrading to win 8.1 and a SSD soon. With the new OS and drive I will be switching to Jriver for playback.
My PC feeds a MF Tri Vista 21 DAC and I would like to improve the performance if possible. Right now my system delivers very good sound and dynamics. Would I be better served with a Bryston BUC feeding the DAC? Thorstens Ifi, or other products?
My Chain right now is PC - JKenny modded HiFace - Tri Vista 21 DAC - ML Pre Amp - ML 33h amps for top end - Genesis 2 (4 tower system) with the servo amp driving the bottom end. My system does most things very well for me as far as sonic's.
Any suggestions from all inmates are welcome.
