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.

All CPUs are the same, all RAM is the same. All run same Linux on ARM. They don’t lose bits. $$$ streamers are BS. Data centers don't lose any data to some 'noise' while happily using switching power supplies and Belkin cables,
