Stream laptop to system


This is probably a question that’s been answered before, but I can’t find it.
Is it feasible to wirelessly stream from a laptop to a stereo rig?
If so, how is it done?
I now stream easily from my iPad with airplay to my set, but don’t know how to do it from a laptop which I’m considering buying.

I’m streaming from both Qobuz and Idagio.  I receive the signal through an Arcam streamer.  My stereo rig consists of separates: Benchmark amp and DAC, CJ preamp. GoldenEar speakers, etc.
What I want to do is download normal and hi res files from different internet sites and stream them wirelessly to my system.
Your Arcam supports UPnP. Software is available for UPnP streaming from Windows and Mac. Look at JRiver, Plex, Universal Music Server and other software.

If your computer/laptop is a Mac, you can also use Airplay as you are now doing with iPad.
