best source for Pandora

Other's know a heck of a lot more than me about digital.

Isn't Pandora's signal quality the limiting factor? Do you pay for premium Pandora, and do you know what that signal's specs are?

I like Pandora for it's exposing me to artists 'like' someone I already know, more important than quality. Mine is generally further limited by computer on board audio chip, or home theater/smart tv quality.

I stick to free basic.I then go to LP or CD in music system.

Also, a lot of new discoveries are more enjoyable via YouTube Videos for me, I may never buy LP or CD, never thru music system. My darn good home theater sound system helps make those videos enjoyable.

Pandora's sound quality isn't that great.  I use it for background music, but that's about it.  Which I realize doesn't answer your question.  You could try Roku, Chromecast, or something like that, but I don't think it would improve sound quality.

So this is more of a hardware question.  I'm fine with the quality of Pandora.  It's just background music while working around the house or on the patio.

Just looking for info on the best device to get it to my preamp.

Bearing in mind it’s limitations due to streaming quality I do not think anything is going to make much of an improvement over your present iPhone or Kindle.

I admit to having streamed Pandora for years, well before Tidal and Qobuz existed in the USA.
It was always background music and a great tool for discovering new artists.
I used and still do my Samsung smart TV to stream it via it’s toslink output to my DAC.
For what it is, it sounds decent enough.
