Sound quality differences in streamers

Can there be sonic differences between moderate and high priced streamers when used for streaming only.
 

Short answer is it depends. If your downstream components are of very high quality,  your room acoustics are dialed in and you have revealing speakers + trained ear, you will easily hear the difference. It also depends what streamers you are comparing. If you use MSB Reference DAC and compare WiiM to Taiko Extreme you will hear the difference. You will hear the difference even if you compare WiiM to a bottom of the line Lumin or Aurender. So without any specifics it’s Impossible to tell whether or not you need a higher end streamer.

@hjdca nice system! 
I’m contemplating eero 6+. I have the old original eero now with one of the eero nodes feeding my streamer. I’m curious to see if there’s anything else that’s improvement in sound going from eero to eero 6+

@hjdca thanks. Since I’m using the original eero I might not get any improvement with 6+ but will probably still get it for even better coverage. 
 

As to streaming…yep sold my analog setup. Went thru few streamer/dac combos and arrived at a streaming solution that eliminated the need to spin physical media be it vinyl or CDs. 
I just got a new DAC and am breaking it in. It’s looking very promising to be a one box solution.
