Like mortsnet, I use an RPI to stream running Volumio. I have mine in a squueezbox type of setup with a nice case and touchscreen, using a HIFIBERRY hat for the dac. All in I am under $150 and I believe it sounds great. I use an audioquest red in the car and like it as well. The rapid shift in technology makes it hard for me to justify lnvestment grade components in streaming. With Volumio, I believe Spotify would be free but a nominal charge to stream Tidal.
Best player for Spotify
Hello to all. Forgive me if this is not the right topic for this discussion. I stream music quite a bit, and am using Spotify which my daughters gave me as part of a family plan. Right now , I am using my phone or iPad for Spotify. I would like to use a dedicated "device." I would like to know some pros or cons to the following devices I am considering: Sonos or Paradigm PW or Blusound Node 2. If there are any other ideas you have that would be great. I am using a seperate amplifier and pre amp which are older and so does not have Spotify connect built in. Thankx,
Arthur
