Need to get off of bluetooth.... looking for a wifi streamer for my budget

My current system is a McIntosh C12000 preamp and a 861 Moon amp. 

I have a Eversolo Z8. I want to get off of blue tooth (streaming from my phone) and get onto wifi. So I need a streamer. 

I know this sounds crazy... but I stretched my budget and it will take about a year for me to recover. So, what would like to do is buy a streamer (used hopefully) to tie me over temp. 

Can anyone recommend a wifi streamer brand/model for my setup that I might find used for *around* $500? I would consider a streamer/dac combo if the dac was better than the one in the Eversolo Z8 because that one is pretty good spec wise (it has the ESS Pro)

As a temporary stopgap. I’d get a Bluesound you can do it from $350 to less than $1000.

Sounds like you realize to match the sound quality of your Mac / Moon you should be fishing in a much higher level pond. 

It seems your are taking the approach I took long ago to get a great system, one really good component at a time.... building to a real audiophile system.
