Advice for Streaming Newbies - Best Bang for Our Bucks

WiFi streaming — streamer vs. through iPad
Airplay is very compressed , but even mconnect  upnp app on apple devices is poorer quality than say bubble upnp on android as the signal gets processed via the apple device rather than handed off directly to the streamer ( but it's still way bett...
