Affordable WiFi streamer - simple but effective mods.

My goal was to find an affordable pre-owned WiFi streamer and optimize its performance. My digital chain includes a Fidelizer AirStream WiFi router. To do it justice, I needed a good WiFI streamer. Ideally, for less than $1K.

Mission Accomplished.   I modded this Auralic Aries.

Improved:

- weight

- transparency

- separation

- tonality

- dynamics

- black background
