You’ve got some good recommendations already so I’d just add the Innuos Zen Mk3, which is also a server and has a disc drive so you can rip any discs you have directly into it. Gets very good reviews, and there’s one available here now for $2785. Best of luck in whatever you decide.
What's the best non-DAC streamer?
I've already got a great DAC (an Yggy) but have never auditioned any streamers. The rest of my system is all Schiit Audio with the 400W monoblocks and Tekton speakers. Have just been using an iPad as a streaming source for Tidal and Spotify.
What streamer under $3k would give me the most bang for the buck?

If you are considering dropping $2K on a Lumin Mini most reviewers think that the money is better spent on the Innous Zen. https://www.tweekgeek.com/blog-tweek-geek-speek/auralic-lumin-innuos-overview-and-feature-comparison... |
If you are considering dropping $2K on a Lumin Mini most reviewers think that the money is better spent on the Innous Zen.Let me get this straight. First you weren’t aware of the Lumin Mini (or at least that it is streamer only). Then you make a statement that "most reviewers" think something else is better. Is that link that you posted supposed to support that? The U1 Mini would be at the top of my list of units to audition in this price range if I wanted a streamer only. |
