Streaming

excellent, ghjuvanni, thanks for your time!

I've decided on the Audiolab 6000N streamer to get into the world of streaming. It uses the DTS
Play- Fi. (Play-Fi https://play-fi.com/) which supports lots of streaming services and multi room, so you can stream to every device you own.The unit has Wi Fi,  coaxial and RCA out Apparently the app is very user friendly for phone, ipad & Apple & Windows laptops
It has the ES9018 Saber32 reference chip, although I'll bypass the chip as I have the external Exogal comet plus DAC. Currently I don't own a laptop, but do have an ipad. I like the idea of being in the music room and controlling streaming services from my smart phone
I'm sure you'll find a streamer that will suit your needs, and be amazed at all the new artists and music that's available via streaming! Good luck on the hunt.

I see you say you have decided on the Audiolab. From what I have read they appear to be a good unit in that price range. 
If you have not purchased the Audiolab yet I would like to suggest looking into another option from a company that rarely gets mentioned. Nord Acoustics Easy Stream Connect DAC 9038. 
Nord is a UK based company that from everything I have read appears to make great products at their price point. Many people that have systems comprised of relatively expensive gear seem to be quite pleased with their DACs, streamers and class D amplifiers. 
The Easy Stream Connect DAC 9038 is a streamer with built in DAC using the ES 9038 chip. If you want to use an external DAC it has the option to do it via digital or coaxial out. 
I do not currently own one. I am waiting on delivery of mine now. At roughly $300 US I figure it's worth a try. ALL of the owners on the sites that have used both the Bluesound Node 2i and Easy Stream Connect DAC say that the Nord Acoustics product wins by a long shot. 

@bgpoppabThank you for that suggestion on the
Nord Acoustics Easy Stream Connect DAC 9038
as I've never come across that company before
Unfortunately my Audiolab 6000N is on it's way.
There are so many streamers out there that I'm sure will do an excellent job. Probably one of the biggest determining factor would be it's internal DAC if you don't own a external DAC and the software (app) interface. The Audiolab 6000N
with it's DTS Play fi software multi room interface really appealed to me.
It also won What Hi Fi streamer of the year, but they might be a bit bias  : )

Using a Cambridge CXN (V2) here on wifi...   Wasn't too crazy about it right out of the box with some god awful 25 year old ICs I had but upgraded the power cord and added some audiophile grade ICs and burned it in for a month and it's near enough to my Sony XA 5400 ES SACD.
