Short answerUse a streamer with an explicitly recorded NAS, SMB or supported library path. Confirm file formats, library indexing and network credentials before judging sound quality.
Decision gate

Verify these before buying

SMB/NAS protocol and authentication

Record the exact model, connector or setting. If it is unknown, keep it unknown until an official source or a controlled test resolves it.

Supported file formats and library size

Record the exact model, connector or setting. If it is unknown, keep it unknown until an official source or a controlled test resolves it.

Wired Ethernet where the library or Wi-Fi is unreliable

Record the exact model, connector or setting. If it is unknown, keep it unknown until an official source or a controlled test resolves it.

Common false positiveA USB-storage socket does not prove that a product can browse an SMB share.
