Help with streamer software


I ordered a PS Audio streamer, the AirLens, due here this week. PS Audio does not have an app for their streamer, and I am not interested in using Roon. I found a full-featured app called JPlay that works very well for streaming Qobuz to my current Lumin streamer.

My problem is that I listen to a lot of internet radio, and that is not supported by JPlay. TuneIn and other radio apps that I am aware of do not stream directly to higher-end devices. I know I can stream to my ipad and bump that over to the streamer but the quality problems are well known.

Does anyone know of a radio app for iOS that will stream directly to a higher-end DNLA / UPnP streamer? Or is there another way to solve this without getting into the Roon world?

Thanks in advance.

Listening to it now. Works perfectly with JPlay. Sonically, sans burn-in and with the supplied HDMI cable, it is a bit more immediate and slightly more detailed (better textures) than the Lumin. Kinda unfair to start judging this early, but certainly nothing wrong with the sound.

Which Lumin you own?  Thanks again for posting your feedback on AirLens. 

 

I think it's interesting that the OP committed to hardware without knowing what software he wanted to run on it.  I don't mean that in a critical way - just that my personality would never allow such a leap of faith. 

I will just add that I do not feel that Roon sound is inferior.  Rather than no one has set up Roon as they recommend, in order to do a proper test, since the configuration of other systems to compare would either be apples to oranges or require a lot of duplicate gear.
