The best sounding music streamer/DAC on the market

I have the Lumin A-1 with Tidal and a Synology NAS.  I love the Lumin App.  It is so easy to use.  You don't need JRiver or Roon.  I just added an EMM Lab DAC thinking my sound would substantially improve.  So far I am not hearing that much of an upgrade over the Lumin.  

I had a Lumin S1.  Best I ever heard.  Sold it like an idiot to chase another audiophile dream...that didn’t work out.  Now have a Lumin U1 connected to a PS Audio Directstream DAC.  I think I’m happy again.

@sfseay How would you compare that U1 + DS combo vs the S1?  

Unfortunately I didn’t have them both - U1 and S1 - at the same time, but I believe the S1 sounded better than the U1/Directstream DAC. I could be mistaken because ear witness testimony is unreliable with the passage of time.

I sold the S1 because I reasoned I could get a lower price Lumin and use my Directstream DAC and have as good or better sound than the S1and recoup some money I spent.  

At at the end of the day I’m happy with the U1 and Directstream DAC...but that S1 put a spell on me...
