Streaming, Getting the Signal, Then What?
Adding and LPSU is news to me.  But consider I run a dedicated 8 gauge home run into PS Audio Power Port II outlet which has a PS PowerPlant 15 plugged into that.  And my modem/router in the next room is also fed by a dedicated 12 gauge home run. ...

The newer one on the block is the smoothlan, also a money back guarantee. I haven't tried it yet, but for under $300 it is a no-brainer.  Thanks tshark, mclinnguy and nigeltheflash. This is exactly what my OP requested; working with what I alre... 
Streaming, Getting the Signal, Then What?
If you are using a combination modem/router my one remaining suggestion is to use a gas discharge surge suppressor at the entrance of the cable to your building. I live in a 160 year old brick factory building condo-ized back in 2007. So I cann...

Thanks all. I now see that erik_squires may be correct, that there may not be a realistic upgrade. I am going to print this thread and come to my own conclusion. Perhaps it is only tweaks that may conceivably make a small difference. Thanks all.

danager Trying to get your streamer the cleanist electrical signal might help.  If you use dimmer light switches turn them off or all the way on.  Removing any switching power supplies from the circuit and feeding the streamer with ethernet not W...

SNS Good test for quality of streaming chain. Streaming sound quality should be at least equal to cd's played over quality transport. Good point. Thanks.

Thanks eric_squire The two main reasons to use your own router are cost and security.... Right now the bargains in Wifi routers are Wifi 6 capable unit which are being discounted now that Wifi 7 is out.  They'll serve you well for many years. ...

Wow! I cannot believe how quickly my OP went off topic. No, I am not changing my "stupid" AirLens.  And no, at this point, my DirectStream DAC MK1 is not "on the chopping block."  I could not have been more clear in my OP, that the equipment I hav...

No. Using I2S output.  
Ohm Speakers Status Update
Reflecting on this thread, I most appreciate that my Ohm Walsh Tall 3000s integrate into my living space so well. No problem being about 16"-18" from my front wall (145 year old brick, 11" high).  They are unobtrusive standing as these beautiful s... 
Class D Option For Bass
Here in my office, 9' X 15', I have a PS Audio Stellar S3000 through a PS Audio Stellar GainCell DAC. It's a class D. For the last couple of years it's been my preferred small office setup with ELAC Uni-Fi Reference UBR62 with a pair of REL Tzero ... 
Ohm Speakers Status Update
The new Ohm facility is around the corner, literally, from where I grew up and went to grammar school 55-60 years ago - 540 Barnum Ave., Bridgeport, CT 06608. They are occupying space in the old Singer Sewing Machine that was HQ and manufactured b... 
Ohm Speakers Status Update
Two years with my Walsh Talls 3000. 11' ceilings in a factory loft setting, brick walls front and 28' behind me. Expansive sound stage and no big deal with moving out of a sweet spot position.   The new shop is in Bridgeport, Conn. - a block form... 
My experience with The Music Room
Coincidently just this morning I pulled out of my desk drawer a Thank You card signed by Josh. He coordinated my PS Audio second hand purchase. Likewise my experience was professional, hassle free.
