Are some streaming players more reliable than others?


I love streaming music and listen to my CD player and TT less and less these days.  It's almost like having the world's music library at your feet, al for $149 /year (Qobuz). That said, I'm pulling my hair out between drop-outs, freezes, devices not being recognized, etc.  It' s always something.  My personal opinion:  It seems to me that this is a wonderful idea that was foistered on us before the bugs were worked out of the technology.  Now that I have vented, can someone tell me if some streamers are less problematic than others?  My present set-up:

MBL CD 31 CD player / DAC

Sonore Ultra-rendu

EtherNet Regen

Using MConnect for the connecting software.  

thanks.

I recently switched to a Allo USBridge Signature with Shanti power supply and (knock on wood) have yest o have a single streaming issue. I use roon and qobuz.  My dedicated NUC streaming as a roon endpoint had all the same problems you report.
