STREAMING DACs

SONOS PORT

$599, sonos.com

A great streamer, especially if you already own a Sonos speaker. It has an analogue input and output, as well as streaming to any

Sonos speaker, so you can plug in your turntable.

YAMAHA WXAD-10

$210, yamaha.com

This Yamaha lets you stream everything from Bluetooth to hi-res audio, with support for

AirPlay, most of your favourite streaming services and, of course Yamaha’s own MusicCast.

IFI XDSD

$589, ifi-audio.com This combined dinky Bluetooth little receiver, DAC and headphone amp supports AAC and aptX and sounds really superb. It has a battery, and can be used with earphones as well as speakers.

AUDIOLAB 6000N

$990, audiolab.co.uk

Probably impractical

if you don’t have a hi-fi stack, but with support for audio up to 192Khz/24-bit, its sound quality is noticeably better than the Sonos and

Yamaha streamers further up the list.
