Hello Steve,
I'm with Gary (hk6230) on this: get a Sonos Connect, use its digital output into the 200, and you'll have trouble-free listening to as wide a range of sources as you can shake a stick at. Agreed, it won't do higher-than-CD resolution, but I am hard-pressed to hear the difference between my Connect and AIR on CD-resolution material. (Disclaimer: my ears are a smidge older than yours!) And if you decide later to get something more sophisticated, just sell the Connect on eBay and you'll probably get close to what you paid for it.
