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.

It is interesting that the app plays a significant role in SQ.

It is quite established that Roon, Soundstream or other third party apps differ in SQ depending on one’s set-up.

That said, the in-house Innuos app for my Zenith server beats all others for SQ.

Btw, I have tried Soundstream for my Esoteric N-05 dac and I agree it is clunky and unintuitive.
