@firberger, Thanks. The most important capability for a music server/streamer is its sound quality in your system. The best case is to borrow the unit and use it in your system, if possible.
I also agree with @rockenator that the App controlling the music server is very important. "The accessing of your music plays a big part in your enjoyment of streaming content". This means the App needs to be intuitive to use, easy to find albums, support playlists and create favorites. You need to review the App to ensure it supports your needs to easily find and manage your music selections.
As you said, QoBuz is a terrific streaming service. Its hi-res albums, 24/96 and 24/192, are great sounding. In addition, QoBuz offers 500+ playlists with a variety of musical categories. Type in the playlist search for jazz, classical, blues, etc.
And, in the normal search area, type in #hi-res for a list of hi-res albums. Or, type in #hi-res jazz. Enjoy.
