General audio topics that don't fit into specific categories.

The universal answer today is

USB connectivity for supporting a wider range of digital formats and not incurring sonic compromises.

While the 7000n isn't *cheap*, it tries to be everything. For the same budget there are arguably better sounding streamers that don't also contain a limited DAC. Also, computer based transports eliminate the single format limitation of using a CD player. My media server contains half a dozen different formats played across a range of streamers around the house and garage. And supports internet based subscription services (I use Qobuz) and radio stations which greatly facilitate finding new music.

I have playlists that mix local and internet based content seamlessly.
