I got the Chromcast. I asked the salesperson about connecting to my DAC. To do this by an optical cord(toslink), I'd have to buy an adapter. Plus, to power the Chromcast device it's necessary to go though a USB output. That said, the salesman didn't think it would provide real great audio quality. To me it was too complicated and lacked a good outcome. So, I abandoned the idea and I remain without SiriusXM. I do have it on my iPhone and in my car but I really wanted it back on my main stereo system. I know it isn't going to happen. I even thought about getting the SONOS CONNECT which would have streamed Sirius. I didn't think it was worth the $400 cost or the cluttering of the area with another box (white box). It is too bad no manufacturer has picked up the Squeezbox line of devices. The lost system was the best.
