Hi everyone,

This is my first post on this forum, so please bear with me Wink

I've pretty much decided on the speakers that I'm going to buy (2x MA Bronze BX2), but would really appreciate your input on which network player I should get.

The player is mainly going to be used for playing music over the network from my PC (high quality Flac and Mp3 files, Spotify and internet radio), but also for handling the sound of movies and tv-series from my TV.

Options that would be really nice to have are if the player can directly play Spotify and internet radio and play music from Bluetooth devices (not just iOS devices).

The most important thing for me is that the player can produce audiophile quality sound through the abovementioned speakers.

Players that I've been looking at so far, are the Onkyo CR-N755 and Marantz M-CR603.

As I said, your opinions, help and input will be greatly appreciated!

 

- Thomas
