How to properly stream TIDAL, Qobuz, Deezer, et cetera?

Hi guys,

So I've been meaning to ask if there's an optimal way to stream these streaming service, if you know what I mean..., like some players which directly support TIDAL or Qobuz or Amazon Music and stuff, but what if I stream TIDAL through Roon, would the sound quality get better? and why?
I know that Roon does a lot of signal purification jobs during the whole transmitting process, still, I'm very much confused hahaha, since the cloud service is the original place of the music files, no? how come during the transmission the sound could be optimized!?

If that's a true fact that it's possible to level up the sound quality better than the original, so the theory can also be applying on the hardware parts I presume, like I can buy an real nice hi-end router to upgrade the network quality from the beginning, then the DC power supply, audio grade network switch, specialized cables, all the way to speakers, is that right?

Best,

REALLY!? degrades? this is the first time I heard it though, I haven't seen any complaints about Roon's performance, the UX of it is actually quite good, I can understand why people like it, I mean I also own a Roon Ready streamer called Munich M1T, just wondering the difference between directly streaming from TIDAL and via Roon haha.

Anyway, I couldn't really hear the difference for the time being...

But some said those so called hi-end equipment adopts better materials, like pure silver to the cables, which serves better conductivity, then it could have better signal quality during the power or data transmission, per se, like less inteferences and noise which would affect the SQ...

Yeah, I recently bought a Roon Ready streamer called Munich M1T by Silent Angel, I mean since it's " Roon Ready ", so I wonder if there would be any sound difference between directly streaming TIDAL via the app and via Roon Ready feature... 

Given Roon Ready is sorta a big deal nowadays I presume haha.
