Streamers under $1500


Any good streamers advice? I currently use Sonos Connect modded by Wyred4Sound. I am looking for better sound quality and good software like Sonos.

I was looking at the PS Audio Airlense when it was on sale, has anyone heard this one?

How about an old iPhone streaming to a good DAC?

@bivhopkins I started that way because it was cheap/easy.  It’s functional but even a cheap streamer sounds much better. 

The new Auralic S1 streamer looks very interesting to me. It costs $1999 with the internal power supply and $2999 with the external power supply. I would go for the 1999 one.

The power supply made no difference in my 2 Sonore OpticalRendu’s.

Update 2 - The reason I was looking for a different streamer is because, I was experiencing audio dropouts. I just found out Sonos products do not work with T-Mobile LTE routers. This is why I was experiencing audio dropouts. Only choice now is to change Sonos, or router.
