Streamers rabbit hole


boy.  there are so many streamers out there all claiming to be better than the other.  My head is spinning.

I have an Anthem STR integrated amp, SVS SB300 sub, and Sonetto II G2s.  Looking for a good streamer pairing for this system. 

Comments please....

So the OP wants a 5K streamer (no DAC or storage needed) to go along with his 5K integrated?

Good God, why not sell the Anthem for $3,500 on the used market and use the 5K you have budgeted for the streamer and buy an NAD Masters M33 V2 ($7,200) which will sound far better and have all that you want? And you save money.

A stripped down 5K streamer is, IMHO, a crime against the audiophile community.

Someone correct me if I am wrong. 1, 2, 3...

A week or so ago, people on this forum  said Eversolo had poor customer service, so consider that, as well as who you buy it from.  The Aurender A1000 seems like it has everything you would want at this price, including built-in linear power supplies.  I have my eye on one myself.

Suggest you look into Auralic Vega models.  They seem to fit your needs.  Balanced connections, hard wired networking.  I use Qobuz Connect, but their Lightening AP works okay too.  I have G1 model, but there are step ups.
