I am looking for a stand alone CD ripper, player, storage (4 TB+), and FM Tuner that will work with wireless speakers (Sonos) in a two zone environment. I do not want to have to maintain a separate hi fi system. In the past I used a computer with an external drive and a music program (initially Windows Media Center which was great), then Media Monkey), but have had to replace computes as the software has grown old and gone unsupported (Windows Media Center Edition, Vista, Windows 7, Windows 10). I have over 5,000 CDs I want to burn/rip, then back up and then dispose of. Don’t want to have to do again
I am not a super audiophile. But I do want great sound coupled with wireless convenience and system simplicity. I do not use nor do I want to use a voice based system like Alexa, etc. Being able to also link the speakers to my smart tv would be great.
I looked at Brennan B2, but capacity is too limited. Considering Cocktail Audio X35, but is a lot of money and at the upper end of what I think I want to consider.
Hoping someone else here has gone through what I have and can offer some ideas.
