For a cost effective solution, well, relatively anyway. I'm so pleased with BeoSound 5, it's interface is unmatched if you ask me, integrated cd drive for ripping and direct play, added Spotify support, able to decode full 192KHz/24bit flac, on board 1TB storage.
The only real downside is that unless you already use BeoLink, it'll mostly function as a purely standalone player, though it does provide a DLNA server as well.
