Hi Everyone,

Looking for some advice from the experts here. Have two possible routes for upgrading sound in my setup (have been researching for a while now). My current setup is q acoustics 3020i, Yamaha avr 3072 and music source is tidal and spotify via desktop and firestick 4K.

1) get a new stereo/integrated amplifier with dac built in to fully leverage the q acoustics and tidal
2) get a dedicated dac and use my existing avr

Also, MQA rendering would be nice to have in the upgrade but not absolutely critical. More focused on SQ than formats here.

Thanks so much in advance!
