Esoteric N-03T streamer with Roon or ?

Hi guys and gals.
I have just purchased a Luxman D-10X and I want to use the internal DAC for my streamed and local ripped content. I am using Roon at present but I am not locked into it if there is something better.
Question....
Is the N-03T a good streamer to use in this application? How should I integrate Roon into this set up? Or should I leave Roon behind (lifetime sub) and just use the Esoteric (Lumin) player software?
How would you connect the N-03T to the 10X?
I am a bit of a digital idiot so please excuse the basic questions.
Rest of system is Luxman M-900u amp and soon to arrive C-900 Pre. Revel Ultima Salon 2 speakers and SME/Soundsmith Analog front end.
Many thanks for the advise.

What do you mean "SQ test to compare the Soundstream going directly into the N-03T"?

Soundstream is not a source or a repository of content. Sounstream is an end point controller. All it does is tell the N-03T what to play, and from where. It's GUI helps you navigate content on your various networked sources.

I used Soundstream with my N-01 and I found it to be clunky. I'm not familiar with Roon, but it has to be better than Soundstream as a content manager.
