Why do you want to connect the streamer to both the STR and AVM 90? This is a very good streamer at a good price that can also play your saved files, but it only has one USB output.
Another request for Streamer Transport options
I am starting to research Audio streamers, preferably transport only.
Budget is unclear until I learn more but I hope to keep it under $3000.
I have Apple iPhones, MacBook Pro’s, Windows PC’s, and a Synology DS923+ NAS. I have both wired, up to 5g, and wireless.
I’ve saved all my CDs in both ALAC and FLAC. I don’t currently stream but am open to trying Qobuz. My primary music source is a record player and a streamer is a secondary concern.
I would like to connect to both an Anthem STR preamp and an Anthem AVM 90 AV preamp/processor. The STR has USB, digital and analog, the AVM has HDMI, digital, and analog inputs.
I avoid purchasing from Chinese owned companies if possible while realizing even if a company is US based, my preference, manufacturing could be in China. It seems a number of commonly recommended products are made by Chinese owned companies. I don’t judge others choices; it is just my personal preference.
Thank you.

@soix I assumed it was a common feature and because I currently use the STR and am adding the AVM 90 and both have very good DAC’s. I use Home Theater Bypass on the STR stereo preamp and share the FL and FR mains and two subwoofers. It would be nice to use Zone 2 on the 90 for music playback on our whole house system and if I learn to burn multichannel SACD’s and a streamer supports it, I might eventually want to take advantage of it. I do like a lot about the Innuos Zen MK3 you linked to. Thanks. |
I am convinced that a InnuOs Pulse, through a aes/ebu cable into an Anthem STR Preamplifier, running Qobuz is amazing 🤩. Then again, a really biased opinion. |
