How important is an LCD screen on your streamer?

No display here. Use an Aurender with critical mode. I don’t like any lights or vu meters while I’m  relaxed and listening. The only exception is when I using my Mac. I love the look of the blue meters 

Like the vast majority already stated, zero need and absolutely do not want a screen.  Seems like a marketing thing and bling.  

A lot of good points already, but to add, think of the cost, dev cycle and manufacturing needed to put one into a product that doesn’t need that functionality imho.  
 

Sure there are some edge cases it would seem and or if one just wants one because it’s cool or for the sake of it, go for it! but imho I see no point and is more of a major drawback to have one.  $.02

I had a screen on my Eversolo and now my HIFI Rose RS130 and like it. I look up all the time to check how far into the song I am and artwork. Wouldn’t buy one without it.

I use critical mode on my Aurender NS200 and the screen is always off. Honestly everything you need to see is on your tablet or phone.

Willywonka hit it.  I control my streamer from my iPad and NEVER look at the streamer.  Truly, never.
