@jondThanks for the mention of AURALiC. I am not familiar with them or Bluesound. It does look like a couple AURALiC products have the features I was seeking:
AURALiC ARIES G2 Wireless Streaming Transporter
AURALiC Aries Wireless Streaming Bridge
In particular, I would like the device to have a USB output that can be connected to the USB input of my DAC. However, since I am already happy with my DAC and all I am seeking is to replace the USB cable with WiFi, I don't understand what value the AURALiC products add that makes them worth several thousand dollars. There are $50 Bluetooth music receivers that support the aptX low latency protocol. Something like that would almost be sufficient, it seems, except they only offer RCA outputs and I would prefer WiFi instead of Bluetooth.
It seems that there should be a range of products in between these low end Bluetooth music receivers and the AURALiC Wireless Streaming products. The AURALiC products cost more than my DAC and I'm happy with my DAC. Apparently I do not understand the value-add of these products.
