SOTM SMS-200 Network Streamer

The SMS-200, along with the Microrendu, created a new standard for computer-based network audio. It is Roon Ready, and Its versatility is highlighted by Steve Plaskin in Audiostream:

A number of other playback options are available from the excellent software, including Squeezelite, which works with the Logitech Media Server and incorporates services such as Tidal. When a USB storage device is directly connected to the sMS-200, MPD and DLNA support allows it to work as a network server. Further, the sMS-200 can be controlled by DLNA software like Linn’s Kazoo. One could also use JRiver Media Center as a server from another computer on the network. The excellent Signalyst HQPlayer can stream from another computer to the sMS-200 or can be combined with Roon for a superb audio interface. Even Apple’s Shairport can be used to stream 16-bit/48KHz files.

Plaskin concluded that the SMS 200 "has raised the performance bar of what is possible from a mini network player."

This unit is just 2 months old, rated 9 of 10 only because it is not new-in-box. It is in excellent condition.
