Madra Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 I would consider the following: - high end NAS running Roon Core and storing your music. - DCS network bridge, Roon Ready, network in, digital out. - Ipad Pro as control point. you will end up with one additional box in your rack; and no extra reclockers, isolators, power supplies needed. this should also be South of 10k$ Link to comment
Madra Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 I read somewhere that the DCS bridge will be able to output via USB with a forthcoming firmware update. A Usb solution generally requires upgraded supplies, clocks... resulting in multiple boxes and cables. I find something like the DCS bridge to provide a more elegant solution. Link to comment
Madra Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 I missed that usb limitation. Thanks for the update. that said, I would not bother with USB if I can have a good SPDIF signal. Link to comment
