Favorite mid-tier streamer

I would recommend checking out the Node Icon before spending big on Eversolo.  Their support is weak compared to Bluesound,  Innuos, Aurender.  Each firmware shows how poor they are at Beta testing.  End user is their Beta. I thought Eversolo was "amazing" too until it's USB out stopped recognizing DAC immediately after update..   Been waiting since June for a fix.  That's unacceptable. 

At the top of your range , innuos  

Most streamers between $1k and $3k will have a built in DAC 

Aurender N150 has USB and is a Streamer only.    

The Aurender A1000 is a much better value than anything Eversolo will ever produce.   Ever pick up an Aurender?   They are built like tanks.   

Anyone spending $3700 on an Eversolo has really fallen for the hype.   Wait until their hack FW has left you without USB or dropouts with Tidal.  Forget about reviews , go to Zidoo website and see all of the problems they are having.  Good luck.

Enjoy the Innuos.   They are a safe bet . Buy a streamer from a company that cares about the end user, not volume sold.  

Eversolo is a real POS outfit.  They don't care if 5% of their A6 A8  users have problems , they are releasing a $3700 streamer that will include all the same bugs.   What a POS company.
