Which ReadyNAS for (wireless) audio-streaming?

I'm new to audiostreaming... Which ReadyNAS should I get, the 100, 200 or 210 (or even another) series? I can take care of the storage capacity, but am much less at ease with the "required" processor. The idea is to be able to listen to CDs at the original quality. I have Sonos equipement (CONNECT, Play:1). THANKS !!!

  • Audio streaming usually isn't too intensive of a process, so any of the ReadyNAS line should be up to the task.

     

    SONOS should be able to pull the music from an SMB accessible share.

    DLNA may or may not work with either the built-in ReadyNAS DLNA server or Plex Media Server (haven't tested it myself).
