LowFi: Denon Home 250 or Bluesound Pulse Mini

The Peachtree Audio deepblue Sky is a good bet. I have the predecessor, the DeepBlue 3, as do one of my daughters and a couple of friends. Great sound and flexibility, built in WiFi, DAC analog input and remote control.

I have a Pulse Flex 2i.  I have no complaints about the sound.
 I like the 5 presets plus volume control so there is no need to use another device for control unless so desired.
The compact size is also a plus.  It is easy to move from room to room, although it does require waiting for it to reboot.
