Replace Squeezebox Touch and improvement in SQ


I use the SB Touch with wireless connect to my network. Bypass the DAC out to a Wyred4Sound DAC-2. Down the chain is ARC tubes / Martin Logan Vantage. Listen to local FLAC files only.

1.) I'm not using the SB Touch DAC, but would I "greatly" benefit from upgrading the streamer/player (and continue to use an outboard DAC)? At what price point? Recommendations? Consider a budget of $300-$1,000 for used equipment.
***Also plan to upgrade the DAC soon - ~$2k budget used.

2.) In general, is there a difference in sound quality using WiFi vs Ethernet?

I continue to use my Logitech Touch as a Roon endpoint.  The EDO upgrade allows me to stream high res files (FLAC 192/24 and DSD64) via USB to my Ayre Codex.  I have a LPS for the Touch.
