Well I chose the following because I use Itunes on a windows machine streaming .WAV files. The Roku works with the Itunes database flawlessley. You have complete control from the Roku using the remote, of your .WAV files through Itunes.
PC ethernet cable out to a Roku SoundBridge spdif coax out to a MF Tri-Vista DAC. I was very satisfied with this setup. Let me regress, I am using a Theta Digital Data Basic II Transport. I couldn't tell the difference between the Transport and the Computer as a transport untill I uploaded Celine Dion on the computer. The sound was a touch on the bright side making the system sound a little bass shy. I have gone back to the Transport for critical listening and only use the Roku for casual listening. Don't get me wrong I think the Roku is a great device as it also works on a wireless network. I have only had problems with that one CD not all of them.
As far as analog out the Roku has a long way to go to catch the SqueezBox.
Good Luck in your search.
Michael
