What are people using to upgrade from Channel D Pure Music to play from iTunes

I have been using Channel D Pure Music to stream my Redbook CDs from my Mac. I use Pure Music from Channel D and have been loving it, but it doesn't support 32-bit architecture and I need to find a replacement. Any suggestions? Has everyone moved to Tidal or Qobuz? I find that streaming a lossless Redbook CD through Pure Music sounds better than any streaming service. Love to hear some ideas.

if the idea of streaming using a dedicated network music player can be intimidating. Might I suggest a WIIM mini which can be found on Amazon. This little device does everything the big boys like INNUOS and AURENDER. Now you can get over the learning curve and be prepared for your future, buying decisions.

Another Aurender happy customer, but depending on your price range, the Bluesound Nodes are all good with the newest one, the Node Icon getting great reviews.

I've been looking at the INNUOS and I can swing the 3-4K range. I think that may be the way to go, any suggestions on where to buy from? Thanks for all the advice.

I changed from Puremusic on a tuned Mac Mini to InnuOS Zenith Mk3 on now Sense 3 five years ago. Never looked back, SQ is night and day.

if there is a need to Still rip CDs I would look at one of the INNUOS ZEN series.
Otherwise, with that budget, I highly recommend the INNUOS Pulse.

As far as purchase look on the INNUOS website for dealer location information. There are a couple of online dealers like Audio advisor, and The music room.
