Also, don't worry much about cables or boxes that regenerate signals (unless you have to run USB cable longer than 5 meters)
True. Unless you wish to improve the sound quality.
2019 Mac Pro vs. Roon
I'm struggling to understand how a music server would differ from my 2019 Mac Pro (Mac Pro - not MacBook Pro - using Audirvana or Roon software) or a Marantz SACD 30n with attached usb storage. As far as the SACD 30n goes, I understand that you would lose a User Interface, but would sound quality suffer?
Thanks in advance,
