Is JRiver still the best software?


Finally got around to curing a nagging problem with my MacBook Pro (13", mid-2012) that had stalled my converting it into a music server.  Looked back into the advice I got here several years ago on the matter, and JRiver was the top recommendation.  Is that still the case today?  I'm running OS X Catalina on a fresh install and will be feeding a McIntosh C50 that accepts up to 32 bit, 192 kHz PCM input.

Thanks in advance for the benefit of your wisdom!

Not sure what you mean by "best," but in terms of sound quality Jriver sounds warmer and more analog like than other software that I have auditioned, and MPC HC gives JR a run for the money.  Not sure what others think.
