I few observations:
1. Your Imac is the server
2. The Transporter is acting as a Roon Endpoint
3. Roon is emulating Logitech Media Server (LMS) to allow the Transporter to function as an Endpoint.
4. The Transporter does not support MQA natively yet. (could be wrong)
5. If Four is true, than the Roon software is decoding the MQA Package and sending it to the Transporter as either 24/96 or 24/192.
6. The AKM AK4396 DAC in the Transporter does support 24/192, but I do not know if anybody has written a plugin/Hack yet to turn it on. I have a few SB Touches that do have the 24/192 Plugin/Hack.
Hope this helps. I have no suggestion for a Player that fits your criteria. You could always use a WiFi Bridge to get a "Hard Wired Connection" to a non-WiFi player.
