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.

The Bluesound Node 2i is a low cost streamer that does wifi.  Some say that more expensive streamers sound better.  

The app that controls it (BluOs) is really good on both Apple or Android devices.  

If you are going to be using an Android device as your controller, the Lumin app does not work well at all.  Some people say they've found 3d party apps that do work well.
