The question asked includes a few red flags. “WiFi Streamer” that doesn’t hook up to the internet? Well Bluetooth doesn’t need internet, but where’s the stream coming from? Does this person have a stereo amplifier and speakers already? Obviously the many responses of Node or WiiM are all perfectly good if so. But if not, an amplified streaming DAC like WiiM Amp would be simpler. Nodes can play from USB storage, which WiiM does not, so if internet-free use is really desired, a used Node 2i is the best bet.
on the cheap
I am looking for suggestions for an inexpensive streamer for my sister. I mean a couple hundred bucks. Does anybody make such a thing that would not have to be hooked up to the internet but would work via wi-fi or bluetooth? AND also have a built in dac. Stereo is not her life like some of us. The simpler the better. Would not have to be new. It would be nice also to have the ability to have cd storage. Is it also possible to not have to be run with tidal and be controlled by an app?
thanks
