Nas Directly to Dev pro with CI

[JoeW]

1. Good day esteemed dev owners. I have come across mconnect player and tried it to push files from my nas directly to Dev. First of all it works wery well. Ok it is not like roon interface wise but it works. What I think and what I would like to reconfirm the SQ with direct file to dev is better then my usual setup makmini and audirvana. Has anyone experimented with pushing files directly to dev using CI and upnp?

I did more or less the same.
My Dev is now connected directly to router, i sent the switch away.
I don´t have yet a nas, just streaming with roon and so far so good. The SQ seems better to me.
Tell us what´s going on, in terms of SQ, of course.

I also am connecting from a NAS thru AIR. In my case the connection is to a network share to my mac mini using Roon. Roon core is the Mac. SQ is excellent.
