Yeah, the problem is my computer desk (with all the headphone gear) is in my studio and the big speaker setup is in the living room.
I'd have to get some long cables for all this.

  I've used a soft cloth with just a hint of moisture.  Worked like a charm.

I've has no luck with that method unfortunately.  I mean, it's certainly not grimey or anything,  In fact it's clean, just looks like there's some streaking and rub marks in the finish that a lightly damped soft cloth doesn't seem to remedy.     Maybe I missed it on their site but I couldn't find a reference to what the housing is made out of  ( maybe I overlooked it).  Is it  Aluminum ?   which most polishes warn against using their products on.   or it is made of something else?

The housings of the Modi, Magni and Vali are powder coated steel. The other products are aluminum, I think.

If the streaks don't come out with light rubbing and moisture, they must be left behind from the manufacturing process.  If that's the case, there's not much you can do about it.  I'd hesitate to put lipid-based chemicals on there to cover up the blemishes simply because the case gets so hot.  It could break down or discolor the chemicals, making it look even worse.

Loki is a DSD-only DAC.
 
Your DAC is pretty highly rated, so you won't get much in return from a new DAC unless you want to jump up a price bracket or two.
