I have a Bluesound Node 130, and found its DAC quite adequate, with barely discernible improvement (if any) adding an outboard Denafrips Ares II DAC.
The Bluesound app lets you see the strength of your Wi-fi signal. Mine is excellent when my network is functioning well (most of the time), and I rarely have dropouts even with hi-res streaming. Maybe in some congested areas wi-fi is more problematic than an ethernet cable, which apparently introduces its own set of problems.
So in sum, I think you may do fine with wi-fi streaming with a Node for under your target price.
I use both Qobuz and Tidal for streaming, Qobuz most of the time. They lack some titles Tidal has, so then I use Tidal. One virtue of the Bluesound app is it organizes your favorites and playlists for whatever streaming companies you subscribe to, and it supports many of them. So in addition to Qobuz and Tidal, I subscribe to TuneIn for "radio" stations all around the world.
