"Even if hardwired, I'll need either a streamer or a streaming DAC. "Not really. Some people use Software players like Roon or JRiver etc.... and stream directly from their Computer into a USB DAC....
I personally don't like this approach, as computers O/S are doing so many other tasks (even when 'idle'. I prefer a dedicated streamer such as a Raspberry Pi (yes, I know it's a computer, but its O/S is very limited and small).
In fact I don't even run my LMS (Logitech Media Server) on my Computers any more. Most of the people on the LMS forums are now running LMS on a NAS System (Which I do) or another dedicated Raspberry Pi (Which the developer of the Latest Spotty Pluggin for LMS does). It is so much faster and much more stable.
