Hello,
This may help:

The unit is made by hims. And I'm more of a hims fan, than
humanware. Therefore, I'd recommend it more than, the stream.
As for price, I think you should check sight and sound, as
apparently, sometimes RNIB and sight and sound have different
prices. Sometimes better, while not at others.
