Roon Nucleus connected via ethernet to a dCS Bartok streamer/DAC.
IPad to control. dCS recommends ethernet connection vs. wifi or usb, which they invented. Small Green Computer sent me an optical converter for the ethernet connection to the Bartok to fine tune any noise. Simple, clean and sounds terrific. Also, the Bartok with it's own streaming ap, Mosaic, will tune Qobuz, Tidal, Spotify and others directly. Probably better sound by a small margin but much less metadata. Can also do Audrivana via ethernet from my MacBook Pro. So, dCS likes connection by ethernet, if available.
