Will a wireless streamer add problems to a signal coming out of a computers USB output?

To get great sound quality you want a stand alone streamer connected to your audio system. Involve no computer directly. Great streamers come form Aurrender, Linn, and some other companies. Bluesound produced a good budget streamer.

‘’If not near your router you can plug in a wall wart wifi extender and then plug your streamer via Ethernet cable into it. I have a $150K system that sound extraordinary plugged in via an extender.

You been a real device the audio engine isn't it these sre cheap wireless Bridges 

Look at an innous or 432evo  uou will be amazed at the difference 

Wireless to optical does not compute. You’ll never get there with a laptop and a D2.

Start over.

I almost went that route before I got my first actual music streamer for $200. Never look back or a pillar of salt ensues.

I can accept what people are saying. I’m actually contemplating a Simaudio’s Moon Mind 2 streamer, which of the ones in its price range seems as though it would serve me best. I had thought I would try a piecemeal approach where I ordered the Pontus2 first and experienced how that improved things, and then add the streamer if necessary. What I’m hearing is that it is totally necessary if I want to get the benefit of the better DAC and fully utilize my great speakers. So perhaps my experiment is doomed because I will have spent a bunch of money on the pontus, which is in shipment, and I won’t be able to tell how much difference it makes because the signal path will still be crappy in front of it.

Does this line of thinking makes sense?  I have some extra money right now and don’t mind putting it toward upgrading as long as the upgrades will be quite noticeable. My wife especially doesn’t like spending money unless there’s a good bang for the buck, and she needs to be able to hear the difference; she does not have audiophile ears. Maybe some of you can relate to this… 

Not sure, but I do know that mine interferes with my tubed phono preamp, as it sits about a foot away. I tend to just unplug the streamer and that solves the issue. I’d move it further away, but I like where it is for convenience and the fact that the interconnect is not that long.
