Looking for best streamer without DAC under $3500


I currently run Metrum Ambre with Metrum Onyx and really enjoy it, but am looking to upgrade to a better streamer that has spotify among other aps. Currently looking at Lumin U1 mini, Auralic, etc.

Curious what others think

Snafujg,
   I’ve got a Terminator as well and like you am curious about the I2S input. Currently running a Roon Nucleus usb and sounds great to me, but curious about I2S. Anyone see an upside to I2S over USB? Also, are dedicated streamers better than my Nucleus?  Not trying to hijack the thread but maybe the Nucleus is a good option for OP.
