The Best Apple AirPlay Streamer


Now that the Apple AirPort Express is going away, what is the best AirPlay streamer available?

Only Apple AirPlay.  No UPnP, ChromeCast or other network protocol/service.  Something simple that just does AirPlay.

I hired an IT guy to set up a NAS drive for me today.  I use Bluesound for whole house audio but had been having a lot of problems with it.  At any rate, it turns out that Bluesound can be used with Apple products (the Bluesound has to be configured as a Guest).
  So it’s not Air Play, but I am not sure why your client should care, as long as they can use Apple products in conjunction...you may want to investigate the Bluesound Node2.
Intone, thank you for the post.  I have first generation AE for a long time.  I just ordered spare one (MC414LL/A) from B&H  (Apple Store is sold out).

Youre welcome!  It’s good that you got one.  We have stocked up on them for our clients.
