Best Transport for Tidal


I am currently running Tidal via the Sonus Connect. Using a
co-ax to my Ma5200 Amp. Is there a better transport I can
use to get the best quality out of Tidal, or is this the
maximum I can get out of Tidal.

My only experience is Tidal on Auralic Aries to DAC. Just be careful because the Aries requires an Ipad (not Iphone yet) or Andriod device to run (anything, including Tidal). There is no computer interface.

In my experience the Aries has been very good. However I can only compare the playback of CD through the same DAC via a Musical Fidelity A5 acting as transport to the Aries and it is comparable. So close that I wouldn't venture into stating a difference. Whether your Sonos would compare I do not know.
