Pretty sure it's a yes on the Roon forum…..
Roon > DiracAudioProcessor (DRC) > Weiss INT203 > digital XLR (10 meters) > AES/EBU into D800
No problem whatsoever and addictive sound trough the digital XLR input into D800. Too few people discovered XLR's outstanding sonic performance.
Alternatively Roon > AIR (ethernet) > dedicated ethernet with fixed IP > D800. Problem is, this doesn't work with Dirac. SQ also excellent but not as good as XLR setup.
Forget USB that hasn't been developed for media data.
That's a very interesting set-up Mohmm! Am I right in thinking that using the Weiss INT203 is kind of the same idea as a Mutec MC-3+USB, except the Weiss is fed via firewire rather than USB? (I have no idea which of the two ultimately offers the best sound quality by the way) You mention the AIR alternative, have you ever tried a comparison between this Weiss set up and AIR?
