What am I doing wrong?

Hi...

I am looking for a device other than a PC, that I can plug SD or MicroSD into, that I can also plug USB SSD into, that will catalogue the albums contained on those devices and then transmit them via UHD Bluetooth, LAN or USB to a speaker nest for example a JBL Authentics 500 that I own. I cannot find one, I cannot find any!! Help!!

For a display with BT/ WiFi, a tablet or smartphone (without a SIM, if you are looking for a dedicated wireless display and no telecom.) Used is your friend. Amazon sells USB SD and microSD drives cheaply all day long. If you are wanting to use the display as a node for multiple drives, then either a model with multiple USBs or use an outboard USB extender.

I don't trust the Astell & Kern type devices, because they are so much like a phone.

Astell &Kern is at the cutting edge of DAP technology and is made smaller for portability. It can effortlessly drive hi-rez files, and it’s Sonics through an earphone or headphone is excellent. Maybe not a satisfactory option for your current needs, but if you want a portable top of the line sonic option, Astell&Kern is a great choice.
