Updating my streamer


I am looking to update my steamer from Bluesound Node - I am very happy with the sound my turntable and my analog set up and would like to update my digital sound.  I do not have a stand alone DAC so any streamer will need a built in one due to space constraints.  

Current system:

PrimaLuna Evo 300 integrated amp (currently using KT120 tubes)

Klipsch Cornwall IV speakers

 

So far have looked at the Aurender A200 and HiFi Rose units.

Thanks for any help/suggestions.

That Evo looks like an off the shelf PC so that alone is a hard pass for me.  

Aurender hardware is well thought out and refined.   Build,fit and finish is instrument level quality,  support has been great, sounds fantastic,  keeps getting better with every revision of the app or hardware.  

Innuous in my limited experience are nice machines with a very good interface. 

@bortonj IMO going with the best possible DAC that has a built in network card and is Roon ready is probably a better approach than going with a streamer that has a built in DAC. Look into Bricasti M3 with network card. You can use Roon or Mconnect (free app). Roon sounds better though. 

I’ll throw the Lumin D2 with the SBooster out there as a solid option. I love mine and haven’t looked else where yet. I have a smaller listening room and consider my amplification top notch. Sound is full without harshness and the best I’ve heard digital sound. With that said I am not after making my digital sound like analog. That’s what my turntable is for. With my Lumin it delivers fantastic music that never feels forced or overly done. 

Like you I just added streaming capabilities to my vinyl 2-channel system. I highly recommend Innuos. I got the Zen Mini Mk3 which is the entry point into their product line. Built in DAC to get me going. Fabulous transport to connect to a better DAC somewhere down the road if I choose. Sense app fully functional and FREE. I am currently evaluating free demos of Tidal, Qobuz and Roon.
