Roon - will this setup work and maximize sound quality?

[actx76092]

Interested in Roon. . currently have an Auralic Aries and am generally happy with it but it is limited for discovery, etc. So, thinking of replacing it and doing this:

Headless Mac Mini running Roon
- accessing music on my NAS
- accessing tidal
- connecting to my D200 via Air

Control will be from my ipad using the roon app.

So. . .will this work well? Meaning that I can pick up my ipad and select songs from my library or Tidal and have them play (as my Aries does)? Is the sound quality of Roon via Air the same as Air in general or does Roon do 'things' to the music?

Thanks
Adam
