Auralic is my choice of streamer and they can read local files just fine either LAN or a connected drive. Lots of used Aries models out there.
Replace Auraliti
I have a old Auraliti digital player, I assume technology has improved and am looking for something new to play my flac files that are on a SSD.
I do not want streaming, I do not want to build a computer or anything with a raspbeyy pi.
All I want is a box that I can plug in a SSD and then connect to my Linear Tube Audio Aero DAC.
I am considering a used Lunim U1 Mini but I rerad how people are having trouble playing local files.
I have a Sotm sps-500 psu I would connect for a better power supply.
I'm getting crosseyed reading all the posts that digress and never answer this question.
Thanks all for any helpful suggestions.
