Good streamer that does not need wi-fi or internet to play local files


Does anyone know any good / decent streamer that

(1) plays local PCM files up to 24/192 and DSD stored in usb stroage devices such as HDD / SSD; and

(2) controls music playing thru bluetooth (rather than wi-fi or plug-in internet) on cellphone or other palm-held devices? 

I keep wondering why the streamer needs to get on wi-fi or internet to play local files and why all of the streamers I know do not control local files playing thru BT.  I pretty much listen to music thru a collection of hi-rez file library but wish to have a fully functonal streamer for streaming music some day when I become tired of music file collection.  Thanks.

I can use bluetooth to stream music to my Auralic Aries G1 when the internet is out, I stream from Qobuz as my local files are on a NAS. Not exactly what you’re looking for but it is useful to me in a wifi outage.
