Budget streaming amp

This subject has probably been beaten to death... I will keep this very simple - I have a pair of passive bookshelf speakers and a room. What do you like/hate/love about of these 5 options? What other options should be considered?


Sonos Connect Amp $200 (eBay used) 

Yamaha R-N303 $300

Sonos Amp $649

Bluesound Powernode 2i $900

NAD C368 w/blueos $1400


I feel like $200 Sonos is the easy answer.

The Powernode is sonically the best choice.

IMHO the best sub $1000 amp/streamer is the Marantz pm7000n - check out the online reviews. I have it in my office system hooked up to some LS50s and am ecstatic about the sound/features/value of the setup.
