Recommended streamers/servers?

I have a Cambridge CXNV2 as well and it’s great I for the main use it hard wired to my internet and it’s fantastic. I just last week sold my PS Audio gear and put in place a Peachtree Nova 150. This combo of Peachtree and Cambridge CXNV2 is outstanding!!!!! The staging and the clarity is unreal!!!! So happy!
in the past I had a Musical Fidelity streamer that was good.

also the support and auto updates from Cambridge is amazing. I might add that support from Peachtree was the very best.

Innuos Zenith Mk3 - many very positive reviews. Maybe the best at it’s price point.

Bluesound node. Don't let the price make you think it's not 'high end'. Read / watch the reviews, it's hard to find a negative comment, but for the issue with the automatic light switch the current batch has. I've got mine a month now and it's being used every day with great pleasure.

SERVER options:
* Roon Nucleus or sonicTransporter i5/i9 (if you want to run Roon Core)
* Innuos Zenith line (if you want to run Roon Core, or if you only want to manage a local library of digitized music files)
* Mac Mini, Raspberry Pi, or virtually any network-connected, full-function computer (if you want to run Roon Core, manage a local music file library, and also run other software for music or anything else).

A few of many STREAMER options:
* Bluesound Node (a relatively inexpensive entry-point, $550 US)
* exaSound S88 streaming DAC (~$6500)
* Matrix Audio Element series (~$3500 for the Element X, which can operate as either a network-attached or USB-attached DAC as well as a pre-amp and streamer)
* Lumin T2 (~$4500)
* PS Audio DirectStream with optional Bridge II 

For bang-for-buck value, features, build quality, and excellent SQ, the Element X is worth a look. However, Matrix is a Chinese company, which *might* be an issue for North American (or other global) customers when it comes to service/support.  Lumin also is a Chinese company. 

Bluesound and exaSound are Canadian.  If you want a Made-in-USA product, consider the Bridge II network card for PS Audio's DirectStream (which the OP already has, right?)

We have a lot of experience in this area

We have sold most of the major brands of servers 

We have had Cambridge, auraylic,Naim, innous, Sotm, Baetis bluesound,

Take away roon based servers sounded the best

Innous beat all others till we found 432evo servers out of Belgium

This server sounded even better and was an upgradeable platform

The 7500 Aeon competes with the 14k Statement and in terms of design and technology stands against the best on the market

The aeon offers complete data isolation with a seperate cpu board, clock card, and sound card,all.powered by two independent SBooster power supplies.
