Roon on laptop to dac to preamp ?
NOOB ?
I currently use Tidal on a laptop via USB to my Brooklyn DAC then to my Rogue preamp.
I want to use Roon for the remote control ease. I will install Roon on my laptop and phone and am assuming this would still be the proper path to listen to my music. I will also be adding an external drive with my music library on it.
Am I safe to say this work?

If you have the extra money buy a Apple Mac Mini. I bought an open box for $370. Installed the core on the Mac Mini and control it via my Macair. Works great!! you can do USB or optical audio out of the Mac. Run it headless after setup with no keyboard or monitor. The best write up that got me in this direction was PS Audio. https://www.psaudio.com/ps_how/how-to-build-a-music-server/ |
