Seeking Recommendations for a Streamer (No DAC)
Hi All,
Unfortunately I could not get an Aurender N100h to work with my BlackIce Glass FX Tube DAC so it's going back.
It's a known issue with Aurender, they even have a "bug fix" built into the app but in my case it didn't work.
I'm looking for a dedicated streamer, no DAC, optimized for USB to replace a NODE N130.
Budget is ~$1,000 used.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

If your a DIY person at all https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tc_QfRTbb6U check this out, I built this without a dac and connect it to my Pontus 2 via I2S then out XLR to Freya S then XLR to Gallon Discovery Mono Blocks then out to my La Scala's Wow Clean, clear, a solid center stage, I can hear more out of my flac music files than before, Hey even MP3 files sound better. Getting to I2S is the key |
Another vote here for the T8. Great detail and Soundstage, plus support for most streaming services. Another option would be to keep the N130, and mod it with a Teddy Pardo LPS. Prior to the T8, I had a Node 2i. I moded it with the TEDDY PARDO LPS, and the improvement in every aspect was very significant! |
