Updating my streamer

I am looking to update my steamer from Bluesound Node - I am very happy with the sound my turntable and my analog set up and would like to update my digital sound.  I do not have a stand alone DAC so any streamer will need a built in one due to space constraints.  

Current system:

PrimaLuna Evo 300 integrated amp (currently using KT120 tubes)

Klipsch Cornwall IV speakers

 

So far have looked at the Aurender A200 and HiFi Rose units.

Thanks for any help/suggestions.

I love my N200. A200 is a nice matchine. They just announced the A1000 streamer /DAC. Looks nice for $3500.

I would go with a manufacturer that specializes in streamers.   As in it’s the only thing they focus on.  Aurender , Innuos, Antipodes….  Bluesound and the aforementioned ones will be around for a while    Will the folks that support 432 EVO be around in a year or two?

That Evo looks like an off the shelf PC so that alone is a hard pass for me.

Aurender hardware is well thought out and refined.   Build,fit and finish is instrument level quality,  support has been great, sounds fantastic,  keeps getting better with every revision of the app or hardware.  

Innuous in my limited experience are nice machines with a very good interface.
