Better digital front end for my DAC


I have a psAudio directstream DAC with the Bridge II.  I have tried using mcontrol, recommended by psAudio and find it frustrating.  It consistently repeats songs and I always have to manually skip to the next song.  In addition, I would like something that provides access to Sirius for more casual listening.

I bought a Sonos and plugged it into my DirectStream and it sounds bright and is not enjoyable.  This is using an optical cable.

Are there other alternatives that provide a better user interface, sound quality and options above what I have tried?

I drive a Kia and a Biria. I’m considering buying the Uptone Audio Ether REGEN for the router. I currently use the ISO Regen and Ultracap LPS 1linear power supply with my Ayer DAC. The Regen and LPS 1 were a solid purchase, the improvement was considerable. Is anyone using the Ether REGEN and was the difference worth the $700.00 asking price?
