So I just researched this out after my wife just wanted to be able to stream music. I came up with three different solutions, that would fit my needs:

​

1. You can get a basic Bluetooth receiver into you DAC. (I also have the Schiit Bifrost) Two issues pop up, one your phone needs to stay connected to the receiver and Bluetooth audio is compressed. or
2. You can go with a budget conscious streamer such as the WiiM Pro. By going with a dedicated streamer, the streamer handles the connection. So your Spotify app essentially hands the stream over to the streamer. Your phone continues to act as a remote for Spotify.
3. I ultimately went with the Cambridge MXN10 (actually arrived today, so I haven’t played with it yet.) Does everything the WiimPro does, but in a nicer package. I choose the nicer package as it will match and create a ministack with my Cambridge phono stage. I am told the UI is nicer, but not sure how much that matters if I am controlling it with Spotify Connect. I was ultimately willing to pay more for aesthetics.

​

There are of course much more expensive streamers with screens, and other bells and whistles. I also looked at the Bluesound, but most it is similarly priced as the Cambridge and the Cambridge came out on top in most comparison reviews. But, once again I liked the aesthetic of the Cambridge and I think it will look better with the rest of my equipment.

Love these. I actually think many shows I’ve been to sound better. When it is too loud I think I miss some of the finer detail.

Also when you first put them in, everything sounds muffled (as it should) and “worse”. But give yourself five minutes to get used to them. I’m convinced that people that hate them have either bought cheap earplugs or they didn’t really give them a chance and took them out after a few seconds
