The Heart of Modern Hi-Fi: Why You Need a Dedicated Streamer.
Sending music from your phone to your hi-fi via Bluetooth is convenient, but it physically compresses the audio, destroying the dynamic range and micro-detail of your music. A dedicated network streamer solves this by taking your phone out of the audio path entirely. The streamer connects directly to your home Wi-Fi or Ethernet and pulls the uncompressed, high-resolution file straight from the server. Your phone simply becomes a remote control. Click through the tabs below to understand the different types of streamers and find the perfect match for your system.
Streamers vs. Transports
When shopping for a network player, you must decide whether you want the device to process the audio into an analog signal, or just pass the digital data along.
- Full Music Streamers (With Built-in DACs): These are the most common "plug-and-play" solutions. Devices like the Eversolo DMP-A6 or WiiM Pro Plus feature their own high-quality internal Digital-to-Analog Converters (DACs). You simply run standard RCA or XLR analog cables straight from the streamer into any amplifier—even a vintage one from the 1970s.
- Streaming Transports / Network Bridges: The purist's choice (such as the Volumio Rivo or Eversolo T8. A transport has no internal DAC. Its sole job is to pull the file from the internet, drastically clean up the digital clocking, and output a mathematically flawless digital signal (via USB, Coaxial, or Optical) to a separate, ultra-high-end external DAC of your choosing.
The Software Ecosystem
Unlike a traditional CD player, you interact with a streamer entirely through software. A streamer is only as good as the app that controls it.
- WiiM Home: Widely considered one of the best value software ecosystems on the market. It is incredibly stable, lightning-fast, and seamlessly integrates your local network files with all major streaming services in one intuitive interface.
- Volumio OS: Designed by audiophiles, for audiophiles. Volumio’s bespoke Linux-based operating system strips away all unnecessary background noise to focus purely on bit-perfect audio delivery. Their interface is famous for its elegant, magazine-like metadata and deep library management.
- Eversolo: Eversolo disrupted the market with massive, gorgeous LCD touchscreens and a deeply customized Android engine. This allows you to install native apps directly onto the device. Crucially, their "EOS" (Eversolo Original Sampling) audio engine allows apps like Apple Music to output bit-perfect, High-Res Lossless audio directly to your DAC.
Connecting Your Services
Your streamer needs to speak the same language as your preferred music service to guarantee the best possible sound quality.
- TIDAL Connect & Spotify Connect: The ultimate convenience. Instead of using the streamer's proprietary app, you simply open the native TIDAL or Spotify app on your phone, hit the "Connect" icon, and select your streamer. The streamer takes over the heavy lifting, pulling the hi-res file directly from the internet.
- High-Res Audio (Qobuz & Amazon HD): If you subscribe to Qobuz or Amazon Music Unlimited, ensure your streamer natively integrates these services within its app so you can access true 24-bit/192kHz studio masters.
Streaming FAQs
Can I connect a modern streamer to an old, vintage amplifier?
Can I connect a modern streamer to an old, vintage amplifier?
Absolutely. As long as your vintage amplifier has an open set of analog RCA inputs (usually labeled "Aux," "CD," "Tuner," or "Tape In"), you can connect a modern streamer. You simply need to buy a "Full Streamer" that has a built-in DAC (like the WiiM Pro Plus or an Eversolo). It will process the digital internet stream into an analogue signal that your vintage amp perfectly understands.
Is streaming audio really better than playing a CD?
Is streaming audio really better than playing a CD?
It can actually be superior. A standard CD is limited to "Redbook" 16-bit/44.1kHz resolution. Modern high-resolution streaming services like Qobuz, TIDAL, and Apple Music offer "Studio Master" files that stream at 24-bit/96kHz or 24-bit/192kHz. These files contain vastly more acoustic data than a CD, resulting in greater dynamic range, a blacker background, and breathtaking micro-detail.
Why should I buy a streamer when my PC or Mac can already play TIDAL?
Why should I buy a streamer when my PC or Mac can already play TIDAL?
Laptops and desktop computers are incredibly "noisy" environments. Their massive power supplies and spinning fans generate electrical interference that degrades the audio signal. Furthermore, standard Windows and Mac operating systems route your music through software mixers, often resampling (downgrading) the audio before it leaves the computer.
A dedicated music streamer is a closed ecosystem built entirely with audiophile components. It completely isolates the audio signal, ensuring bit-perfect transmission and a vastly lower noise floor.
Do I need to connect my streamer with an Ethernet cable, or is Wi-Fi okay?
Do I need to connect my streamer with an Ethernet cable, or is Wi-Fi okay?
For 90% of listening, modern Wi-Fi is perfectly fine. Streamers use buffering to ensure smooth playback even over wireless networks. However, if you are regularly streaming massive, uncompressed High-Res files (like DSD or 24/192 FLAC), or if your router is located far away on another floor, a hardwired Ethernet connection is highly recommended. Ethernet guarantees maximum bandwidth, zero dropouts, and absolute stability.
Can I play music files stored on a USB hard drive?
Can I play music files stored on a USB hard drive?
Yes, most premium streamers support this. Devices from Eversolo and Volumio feature USB input ports specifically for this reason. You can plug in a massive external hard drive filled with your ripped CDs or downloaded FLAC files, and the streamer's internal app will scan the drive, index the metadata, and display your music with full album artwork. (The Eversolo range even feature internal NVMe SSD slots so you can install a hard drive directly inside the chassis)
Will I need to use multiple apps to control volume and change tracks?
Will I need to use multiple apps to control volume and change tracks?
If you connect your streamer to your amplifier using variable volume output, you can use the streamer's app (like the WiiM or Eversolo app) to control both the track selection and the volume from your phone.
However, for the absolute highest audiophile purity, we recommend setting the streamer's output to "Fixed" (100% volume) and using your preamplifier or integrated amplifier's physical dial (or remote) to control the volume in the analogue domain.
