The Evolution of Music Streaming

I’ve been in the hi-fi business since 1979, and my early experiences with digitized music libraries were with personal servers like Escient, Elan’s Via DJ, and Fusion. These systems were revolutionary for their time, letting you download and organize your entire CD collection. But let’s be real—ripping dozens (or hundreds) of CDs was a labor of love, and when a hard drive bit the dust, your carefully curated library went with it. Ouch!

Fast forward to today, and music streaming has completely transformed the landscape. Services like Qobuz, Spotify, and Pandora provide instant access to virtually any song or album from anywhere in the world. Pair these platforms with modern, reliable data storage, and the listening experience is now better than ever.

One of my personal favorites is Bluesound. Their BluOS app offers a seamless multi-zone interface, perfect for enjoying music in every room of your home. When it comes to high-resolution audio, Bluesound sets the bar high. From the $299 Bluesound Node Nano to the $999 Bluesound Node Icon—and even the $1,399 Bluesound Vault 2i for CD storage—there’s a solution for every music lover.

Bluesound shares a close partnership with NAD, a brand renowned for its exceptional amplification—and I absolutely love the sound of NAD gear.

If you're a fan of vintage-inspired design, don't miss the NAD C 3050. It combines a striking retro aesthetic with modern features, including optional built-in Bluesound support, making it a perfect blend of classic style and cutting-edge tech.

If I were to name the best music streamer on the market right now (regardless of price), my vote would go to the Eversolo DMP-A10. With outstanding sound quality (awesome DAC!), an intuitive interface, and rock-solid performance, it’s a true standout.

Priced at just $899 per pair, they deliver outstanding performance and streaming convenience in a sleek, high-quality package.
