This is possibly a stupid question but eh this streaming lark is all new to me.
I've been streaming through my tablet and using the headphone output to RCA's into my amp, and to be honest it all sounds a bit flat,now I'm not expecting it to equal CD or vinyl but I am underwhelmed.
The question is, is this down to the lossy format ( sony unlimited is 340? kbps acc) or is the output through the headpone jack to blame, and therefore would a better dac bring an improvement or are lossless files the only way to go?.
