To Stream or Not to Stream

Do it, it's an absolute game changer.
What components you choose to use are just the details.

The new music to be found is a game changer. Have only been doing it myself for under 2 yrs but we'll worth it.

I'm "all in" with streaming, so much so that I hardly ever listen to any other source.

In my case I have a Roon Nucleus Plus server, it's USB into a PS Audio DirectStream DAC, the two pair with each other very nicely.

I have friends who enjoy the Aurender, it's certainly an excellent unit as well.

One thing I find with digital is the quality of the AC power is important in getting the best sound quality.  I also used to have both a Tidal & Qobuz subscription, but dropped Tidal.

I highly recommend Aurender streamers. I think to combination of the Yggi and the Aurender streamer is a good one. I have two Aurender Streamers 100N and W20SE. 
Personally I recommend not ripping your CDs. I would focus investing in components to maximize the streaming fidelity. I have 2K CDs that are used as acoustic wall diffusers and dust collectors. My CD playback is indistinguishable from streaming. If you get to that point there is no point in spending hundreds of hours ripping disks. Qobuz will open up the world of music far beyond your collection and much of it in higher resolution. 
So my recommendation is to get the best streamer you can afford (Aurender great choice)… having a little local storage on it is OK, but don’t waste money on a ripper. The sound you get will be the result of the streamer and DAC. Yggi is a great value for the money. 
I assume you are using a CD player now with an internal DAC? Or are you using a CD transport and the Yggi?
