Using Mac Mini as streamer plus music server
#28
I had been using my Macbook Pro and later Macbook Air with Roon as core with my Devialets. Streaming had been on Ethernet ... I compared USB vs ETH and chose ETH I way I would like to move on ...

Couple of weeks back, I replaced my Macbook Air with a Roon Nucleus / iPad for controls using Ethernet for streaming ... further added a Linear PSU that I built myself and there's absolutely no going back to Macbook Air or Pro from here ... The dedicated Roon Nucleus with LPSU just thrashes the earlier setups.

2 days back, I got a Power Regenerator .. PS Audio DirectStream PowerPlant 12 after comparing results with Shunyata Denali & Audioquest Niagara 7000 ...

It has completely transformed my listening experience ...
