Please suggest streamer $500 to $1000 used

Cambridge Audio 851N. The latest firmware adds Qobuz streaming and the latest app is much improved. Well reviewed, and a real bargain used. 

Sonore Ultrarendu. New and used <$1000

I think the sound of a Mini with an upgraded power supply outputting to a Dac is great. I use an Sbooster with mine. Retail on the Mini was $550 without the upgraded LPS my Sbooster was about $350 making the retail $900ish. Not sure what Auralic charges for their LPS. I see a Mini on here now with LPS for $620 that's a tad high reflecting the scarcity.


As far as dropouts I had no issues at all with the Mini on wifi and now I have it hardwired. Every once in a while issues pop up but they are typically an issue with Tidal or Qobuz rather than my Mini. I hope that helps.

Jond, Aries was on top of my list. Is there a big difference between mini with power supply and regular Aries. I talked to a shop that said music drops out with Aries is this true. What is a far price to pay for mini with power supply and regulation Aries, I've seen both on used market. Do I just download lds app and scroll through all of tidal just like I do on the Mac. Sorry for all the questions, thanks

There are a lot of Auralic Aries on the used market since Auralic rolled out their G1 and G2 serious. I've an Aries Mini for the last 5 years and absolutely love it Auralic stopped making it a few years back and you rarely see them used. But the original Aries $1599 is running between $5-900 and I think would be an excellent choice. I love their LDS control app quite a bit also.
