Yes! I use a QNAP HS251+ running JRiver and controlled with JRemote on an iPad. I used to run this straight into the D visa USB and it sounded great. I now run the QNAP into my Mutec and on to the D via AES/EBU which improves the SQ even further.
This is not my only source, however. I also use a Sonos Connect, a turntable and a CD player.
If it came to it, I could easily be happy with just the QNAP as my only source. It never fails!
Great!
Is it also possible to set JRiver to "play from memory instead of disk"? This since it seems to improve SQ, at least for me.
But just to make things clear( maybe I'm an idiot) but if I buy the HS251 (must it be the "+"?) I can install some kind of operating system like w10, install JRiver and use my iPad or Android as a remote, connect it via USB straight into Dev - and that's it? No need for any computer during playback?
