If you want to feed it with BT or WiFi, Chromecast I'm seeing mentioned, is putting you at a low starting point. I have BT in the kitchen area and another for the back deck, made my wife happy and I grew to love the convenience of Tidal HiFi on a phone or PC, giving me at least ~CD quality. I don't see anywhere exactly what they are putting in the new ultra, but the last Chromecast version was not fidelity with an AK4430 @ THD -91dB, and a DRV632 op-amp @ SNR 90dB. A cheap little doll hockey puck that makes some decent sound. It takes more than that, every component in the chain... go with the Auris bluMe that has a AK4396, or something that has a decent DAC in it, or you are basically cheating yourself from what you should have. I have a chifi BT that I could upgrade the op-amp in it to a MUSES02, made a difference. The Auris blueMe came out after, but the chifi BT is still singing... BTW you want that big 3dB antenna... I have one.
Chromecast is the one with the wad in it...
