I’m using the AURALiC Aries G1 with the Chord Qutest DAC. WiFi. No complaints. Great sound quality and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it. It does Tidal and Spotify Connect, although I haven’t tried these (I have a Qobuz subscription). The G1 sounds super streaming from Qobuz or playing the AIFF files from the hard drive.
Good Streamer with WiFi Connectivity
Hi,
Newbie looking to add a Streamer into existing System. This unit will feed into a separate DAC (Accuphase).
WiFi connectivity of unit is preferred—to keep things simple—ie. don’t want the extra work on router, ethernet connect etc where possible, foreseeing the cabling~messy.
Is this (WiFi) route a compromised in sound quality? Which Streamer in the 3-5k range will do the job nicely? Will be using Tidal/Spotify. Lumin? Aurender? Or...? Thanks.
