Plays 24/192k files without hickups served from a NAS. You can even install FIR convolution filter for room correction using brutefir. All fed into the Phantom through optical input. Works like a charm!+1
You are on the right track. Your NAS can definitely be used and stay in the basement.
I have the RPi and Digi+ and works very well. I run Roon on my NAS but your iMac would be fine as you need a powerful NAS.
Alternatively you can get the Soniorbiter SE if you don't want to the RPi which is a bit DIY. It has options to use DLNA ,Roon or Squeezebox etc.
Depending on your NAS there is music server software you can install and run on it like Logitech Media Server.
