There are a number of micro PC solutions that could fit the bill once you decided on the software.
I use Roon and for ~ $300 you can buy a unit which can be the core and end point. Any other streaming software would also work:
My Oppo 105 finally bricked. Streamer suggestions?
Hey all,
Well, my vaunted 105 now won’t connect to Tidal through the app no matter what troubleshooting I do, and since my listening is 40% vinyl, 50% streaming, and 10% cd, I’m losing out on a lot of music. I’d like to keep the Oppo as a the occasional transport but need something to stream Tidal.
I can still connect via HDMI to to the Oppo from my phone or laptop, but the sound is terrible.
My digital system:
Ragnarok 2 integrated
Denafrips Ares 2 DAC/Schiit Gungnir (currently comparing them side-by-side)
Reference 3A de Capos
Oppo 105 (still can be used as a transport and blu-ray)
Suggestions for a streamer that would work well with the Denafrips? Budget under $1K.
Thank you,
simao
