Solo streamer


I’m looking to replace my Cambridge CXN v2 with a streamer that has better SQ.  I want a streamer with no extra accoutrements: no DAC, storage capacity, etc., nothing but a streamer.  Is this available?

I’ve seen some negative reviews (based on issues around the software side) of the iFi Zen Stream, but I’ve owned one for a few years, now (Roon only), and it’s never had problems. I’ve "upgraded" it by getting a Chinese standalone power supply geared toward the ZS and a low-priced DDC to convert the USB output to IIS. Both upgrades made it even better, and for the foreseeable future I’m keeping this setup. I’m currently trying out a Gustard A26 - which has its own streaming built in - and the Zen Stream is much better than the one in the Gustard.
