Help With A New DAC/Streamer


First post. I have an Audio Research VSI75 and Dynaudio Contour 30’s. I’m currently using an Aurender A10 for streaming Tidal.  My wife uses this system also. Sonically the A10 is fantastic, when it works. But the Conductor app is terrible on multiple levels and I’ve also had other software related issues. I don’t want to deal with tech support anymore. Looking for thoughts on either separate DAC/streamer combinations or a combined unit. Music runs the gamut from rock to Jazz and hip hop. Thoughts???

I really like my Cambridge Audio CXN 60 streamer/DAC combo, and it’s only $1100.  The Stream Magic App works well and it also is great for Internet Radio, Podcasts, and everything else.  It has sAirPlay and Chromecast.  The DAC is a good 24 bit Wolfson that I actually bypass because I have a better DAC, but you can start with it and upgrade the DAC later if need be
