Streaming music

I currently stream Tidal and Qobuz from my laptop computer through USB to my Classe Sigma processor.  My amps are the Classe 2300 and 5300. Speakers are B&W 803D3.  I am being told my computer is the weak link in my system and that I should consider a music steamer to replace the computer.  For those of you who have made this change, were the improvements significant?  Also curious which streamer you went with.  I am considering the Lumin T2.

@willgolf My understanding is that the Lumin X1 is the only DAC with a fiber optical input. Have you tried this fiber optical input with something as simple as the following for $200,

If so, what did you use and how does it compare to USB or RJ45 copper input on the DAC?
