Hi,
- MacMini with Roon/AIR -> Wifi -> D900 is one option.
- MacMini with Roon/HQPlayer -> USB -> Mutec MC-3+ USB -> AES/EBU -> D900 is another option.
Pls note this might be due to expectation bias.
One of the benefits of option 2 is a significant reduction of the noise floor. This has advantages as well as disadvantages. On one side, it revealed some new details, sensations in the recordings. On the other, it revealed a lot of defects in some recordings as well. It also underlined the benefits of using HQPlayer instead of Roon DSP otions. I noticed that HQPlayers filters displayed less post ringing in my system than Roon DSP.
