Streamer Recommendation.

Budget 7000US$. (+/-)

System: Amplification: Luxman L 509X. Speakers: Joseph Audio Perspective. DAC: PS Audio Perfect Wave. CD/SACD PS Audio Perfect Wave. Streamer: BlueSound Node 2.I

I am limited to WiFi, due to my router location. I would like a high quality streamer without DAC that will provide a noticeable improvement over the entry level Node.

Any assistance would be very helpful.

If you just like firing up an album and listening (Ron Popeil ,set it and forget it) then go with a one box solution.

I am a lifetime Roon subscriber but the Sense app from Innuos far surpasses the Roon environment, Here are a few Innuos awards if we are bragging about awards. I have no connection with Innuos other than being an extremely satisfied customer. ZENith Mk3 – Innuos – High-Fidelity Digital Music Servers and Streamers

Under $3k. Spend your other $4k on an electrician running a hard wire. Anything left after that. Upgrade the DAC.
