Haha, I wonder what people think of me with all this chat.
I've actually had the same turntable, pre, amp and speakers for ten years. Only started fiddling now, and even then the only thing that's actually changed is a pair of Tannoys. That and swapping an old Sonos Play:5 for a Chromecast as the digital source. All my hifi choices are very frugal and mainly DIY. Apart from the Tannoys, nothing cost more than £100.
The DAC request was a joke at Steves' expense. I'm very happy with the built in Chromecast DAC, mainly for the simplicity and the fact it cost £22 and is doing everything I want really well.
Ha, triggered!! I must have you mixed up with another thread dweller. I think there are gains to be had over a chromecast but sometimes it's better not to open the box.
