Cambridge Audio 851N seems interesting
#4
The Cambridge Audio 851N is their flagship streamer. It is basically StreamMagic 2 but within a bigger box and with better power handling. I would say based on my experience with StreamMagic that it is good but their ATF is a bit overrated and it may sound a tad clinical. Also one major drawback is the app which has the worst rating on AppStore and Google play. And this is not to be taken lightly.

In the same league,maybe slightly more expensive comes NAD M50. A member of NAD master series and really solid. But the thing that really makes it stand out is the fact that it has almost any online streaming service you can think of builtin. And the app is decent.

But still for me Aurender sound is more mature with warmer feel and wider sound stage
