Looking for a network player

Hi Folks,

Looking for a network player for my new system Hegel H160 + Focal Electra 1008Be.

Already have Asahi Kesei DAC in Hegel and I plan to use that. However I still need something that can stream my FLAC files to the Amp. Dont want to use a PC though. Was looking at Bluesound Node 2 and Auralic Aries. However are there any better suggestions?

Thanks,
Jack

I would go with the Auralic Aries. It is dedicated to your specs. All other products I can think of have built-in DACs or more. Aries sole purpose is to stream to a DAC.

On the cheaper side of products would include Apple TV & Apple Airport, Google Chromecast. which as far as I know can handle FLAC files.
