PC+Dac or Streamer


As the CD sales is going down at my surrounding and no new albums on CD, planning to go streaming...Now the question is whether  quality of sound will be better on PC plus DAC or Streamer, I read in Linn's website that Streamer is better options but I see it is expensive, they are mentioning about convenience, controlling through phone or tablet, I am alright to walk to PC and select my paylist.
Would like to know if any gone through this road and selected which options, PC+Dac or Streamer

I have never had a problem finding my library with my Node2i but it will dropout every so often. I use it wireless only, way to much trouble to get a wire to my living room. Since I have put the Node on it’s own 5g network ( also make sure you aren't sharing  your channel with others  in your area )and given it a static ip address I have had a lot less problems with it doing that. If your bluesound device is wired you might try going into the router and doing the static ip address. To the OP I agree with the others who say find a good DAC in your price range and start there.
