Streaming from phone


I have a great home system with dedicated streamer and dac with Tidal and Roon.

But I want to have a second system at cottage however I don't have eternet at cottage so I use my phone to stream Tidal.

Is there a way to get quality sound using a phone and a Bluetooth streamer to amplifier?

Any suggestions for good streamer with wifi?

It depends on how hi-fi you want to go, streamers make a difference. You are not limited to streamers that support wifi, you can use a cheapo TP-Link wireless extender to handle those duties. Going up the chain a bit on the streamer would give you better results. All that said, Bluesound is a decent mid-fi choice and has good control software that won't drive you too crazy.

 

 

@ghdprentice -- the one catch with your suggestion is that it requires a cable connection between the phone and the DAC.  Not everyone wants a long cable from their listening chair over to the stereo. Hence the several suggestions to use the phone as a hotspot and control for a wifi streamer. 

If you are planning to go iPhone to Bluetooth Receiver (part of amp or separate device connected to the amp), you may want to consider the Questyle QCC Dongle Pro ($77.00 on AMZN cyber Monday). It gives the earlier than 17 iPhones LDAC capability. I found that it really improves the sound to my LDAC capable wireless headphones and earbuds.

If it's available in your area, I would suggest Starlink for your cottage. It would also make a great backup if your ISP goes down at your primary home.
