RE: PS Audio Directstream or something else?

Why not get a new DirectStream Jr? It includes network streaming capability built-in and is RoonReady should you ever decide to go that route. The network card is an optional cost item in the DirectStream, but that capability is included in the Jr.

If you have hardware to trade-in PS will give you trade-in value if buying from them direct. A dealer might also give you a slight discount w/o a trade-in so the $4000 DirectStream Jr. won't be that far off your budget.

I'd also take a look at the Mytek Brooklyn DAC at $2000 new.

P.S. I really like my PS Audio NuWave DSD DAC. I kept it and sold my Ayre QB-9 DSD. Both are excellent but I slightly prefer the NuWave.
