I use a Slim Devices and it works wonderfully. I ripped all my music to Flac for lossless compression. I did the same as you were doing, reading mixed reviews. But what I seem to see it people trying to do something out of the ordinary, i.e. Setting it up with different drivers, trying to play formats it wasn;t intended for, or basically trying to do too much. I use it wired it it has been flawless. The only issue I have ever heard about having any credence to it is when trying to stream 24/96 uncompressed files wirelessly while your network is also doing something else. Other than that its been great!
Wireless Music Bridge, Soundbridge, etc.
I know there's some threads on this, but I'm considering a wireless DAC interface between my PC and Pre-amp. Been reading some horror stories about Linksys Music Bridge as well as the Roku and even Logitech Squeeze Box. Some people like them others say "no way". Difficult to get working, clips, quits, sounds bad.....
Logitech also has the Transporter but don't think I'm ready for a $2000 gamble.
Just trying to use a better audio out from my PC, possibly better external soundcard and get rid of some cables. Any reasonable recommendations?
