Check out Antipodes Audio from New Zealand. Their streamer/servers are world class. The onboard DACs are more than OK or you can use an outboard DAC if you like. If you're in the US, your dollar conversion rate will make them even more attractive
Need DAC/Streaming Advice
I currently own a Bryston BDP-2 digital player that I run through a Bryston DAC. As far as playing high resolution files via a thumb drive or other external drive, the BDP-2 sounds great. The streaming part leaves a lot to be desired. I can stream Tidal but it is extremely slow and the IPad controller is pretty lousy. I can listen to Sonos through the DAC into my main system but obviously there is no hi-Rez via Sonos. I would like to find a better solution and am willing to start over (I can move the Bryston components to my secondary system). What I would like to find is a higher end streamer for my main system that would allow me to stream Tidal, Spotify and Deezer if possible while also playing digital files via thumb drive etc. I have no idea if that can be done in a one box solution or if I would need a separate streamer and DAC. I would very much appreciate any and all thoughts. Thanks in advance.
