Best bang for the buck

@ctlesq 

i bought the 9v. Read the descriptions of the parts you are buying very carefully. Everything should match up. Sitting here on my phone and away from my computer I can’t remember the exact details, but I’m very happy with how it turned out.

I went and looked up my order. The TP Link unit was 9 volt. You have to match the power supply with the unit. 

My best bang for buck has been repurposing my Roon ROCK NUC as a Windows server.

I already owned dBpoweramo Asset UPnP, so all it's cost me so far was £130 for an external SSD to give extra security with the music files while reformatting the internal SSD drive for music files. I have another £40 or so to pay for the Windows 11 IoT Enterprise LTSC licence. So basically I've got a considerable upgrade in sound quality for a total outlay of around £170.

Yes, there's a downgrade in functionality, but on the positive side I'll be saving $280 equivalent ongoing annual Roon subscription.

@edinphiladelphia thank you for confirming!

Please let me know what you think once you get it set up.
