How to Tell the Difference:  Look at the number of output tubes: If the amp has only one or two output tubes, it's more likely to be Class A. If it has four or more, it's likely Class AB.  Check the power consumption: If the amplifier draws ... 
Need to get off of bluetooth.... looking for a wifi streamer for my budget
if you’re going to step into big boy streamers look at Aurender or InnuOs. I highly doubt you will get anyone to say anything negative about them. Great customer service and their stuff sounds great.

Denon HEOS LINK or Wiim Music Streamers?
