Need Opinions for Streamer/DAC [One Box - Not Separates] Budget Approx. $ 5,000

Hello - 

I have a MAC7200 receiver and Focal Sopra 3 speakers. My requirements for streamer/DAC are as follows:

1. MUST be wireless, as no ethernet in man cave [this precludes several brands]

2. MUST have either Tidal or Quobuz, and internet radio

I've been researching HiFi Rose RS-151 and Cary Audio DMS-700. We're talking delta-sigma ESS9039PRO vs R2R AKM AK4499EQ. Does anybody have experience with both units who can supply an opinion? Alternate suggestions certainly welcome. Open to used or open box or demo. Thank you for your opinions!

Unfortunately Lumin T3 is ethernet only and that doesn't work for me.

I have both the CXN v2 and the NODE X with a modded LPS from PD Creative. I'm looking to up my streaming experience and will review the MOON literature.

BTW I have a UniFi network set up in my house and am using the U6 PRO as an access point and have AT&T 1 gig fiber in passthrough mode.

LOL - there is a nice DMS-700 on US Audio Mart for $2,800 - but the seller has 0 feedback [just joined actually] and his English needs improvement - so I wonder what country he is from? And his ad says Urgent! I will research all information here and narrow down the prospective field. Thank you everybody!
