Best Dedicated Streamer


I have a Canary KD-2000 DAC and seek a high end digital streamer to feed it with. I don’t need an integrated unit with a DAC built in nor do I need or want a CD transport in the streamer.

What manufacturers and products should I consider? I would much prefer to buy US made.

Thank you.

The only US made one is PS Audio and they’ve been trying for years to market a stand alone streamer and are not there yet.

Meanwhile they are using and recommending Innous. Way ahead of the Mac mini Paul used for years.

@fuzztone what about the Bel Canto E Stream? It is made in the US. 

Simaudio has the Mid 2 player but that is Canadian so  does North America count? 

Personally I have tried very good streamers and in my home not worth $5k+

since I have a very advanced dedicated line using awg10 Copper wire Pure silver contacts 30 amp line on a separate copper buzz bar ,and 2 inch silver plated grounding Rod .  It made a night and day difference in inner detail and black back ground  .little green computer with linear power supply using SS  drives .

over $4k i digital cables ,I have a uptone ether regen which is very respectable .

the synergistic research Ethernet hub is the best I have tried for streaming .

itretailsover $2k I can get $20 % off that , the Denafrips Terminator + I am buying soon it’s the best dac under $12k I have tried and this includes the chord Dave ,

land Holo springs may KTE  within the last 6 weeks . In NewEngland we have a nice multi state Audiophiles that we visit and share .i owned a Audio store until 2010 .i have learned many ways to get great results for much less monies  then many $$ audio systems.

You should look at the streamers from wolf audio .

Made in America .

I have been using them for over 2 yrs and chose them over the lumin and aurender 

I would agree with @newtoncr that you should consider or research the Wolf Audio Systems Alpha 3SX or Red Wolf.  I have had my Alpha 3SX for 3 years - Stereophile Class A.
