Seeking a Tidal full MQA streaming DAC

Feature set aside, which of these three units has the overall best/most enjoyable sound. Lumin T2, Aurender A10 or PS audio Direct Stream w/Bridge II. I keep changing my mind as to which one to get. It would be difficult at best to try any of these before buying. If there is something else I should consider please let me know. I need Full MQA, Qobuz, ethernet or wireless is ok. Ripping and storage is not as important to me as streaming(lazy I guess). Any direct knowledge/opinions would be appreciated. I am not particularly tech savvy so I need a little help. I am currently using an OPPO 105 as a transport with a Wyred 4 Sound DAC2V2 SE to my Aesthetix Calypso with PS audio M700 mono amps. I am thinking I can do better with a better source. I have  entry to mid level cabling from Schimtt, Harmonic Technology, Audio Art, Signal Cable and Cullen.

I'm running a Topping D90 MQA DAC coming from an Innuos Zenith MK3 and playing out to a Primaluna EVO 400 Integrated Tube Amp and out of Klipsch Forte III Speakers.

I can recommend this DAC highly and have it playing via Tidal. MQA is recognised all the time and decoded with aplomb. Do bere in mind that to do this you will have to use the USB connection to enable MQA decoding.

Other then that..... I am enjoying the DAC within my setup. Clean sounds with good Bass, Treble and rhythmic. You can also choose from six filters to adjust the sound to suit your system/ears.
