The Aries Mini is great. Only two downsides for me so far (one of which doesn't matter to me). I believe the software is only for iOS (I have iOS though so not a big deal). And they are very hard to find for some reason. I found one on eBay for a really good deal with the linear power supply and a 500GB harddrive installed.
The nice things are you can install an internal HD on it. You can also add an external DAC down the line if you want. Sound quality is really nice. You can incorporate Tidal/Qobuz/Roon. It has bluetooth + Airplay also.
