Streamer Advice

Hi, I'm in the market for a new streamer and was considering Bluesound N132 then found out to make it better I need to upgrade the module inside and then add external power supply. So then I thought about PS Audio Airlens so wouldn't have to go through all the upgrades for Bluesound. Too bad Bluesound just can't make the Node good from the start. Is there any other streamers that would be really musical I should consider under $1500?  Thanks for your replies in advance!

Also I will be using my own DAC a Wyred4Sound Anniversary edition.

It looks like the Pulse mini doesn't use Wifi and has to be hard wired so I need to find something that has wifi built in. My router is too far from my system and I don't want to run long cable two rooms away. Innuos has great reviews too bad no Wifi.

You really don’t wanna use Wi-Fi — bypassing a streamers Wi-Fi processing is preferable.  Better to get a Wi-Fi extender or Mesh system and go hardwired from that into your streamer, which also puts Innuos back on the table.

I never had luck with wifi extenders and I have to research Mesh systems, I am not familiar with what hardware I will need. Do you know what brand I will need and model number?
