I recommend Melco. It's a great NAS and can also be a server. It sounded much better than the Synolgy NAS that it replaced
NAS/Streamer or server/player?
Recently my server/player died due to a major power issue to my house. So now I am considering whether to use another music server/player or spend the same $ (say ~USD$8-10k) on a player/streamer only and link to a dedicated Synology NAS that I have spare (but with a low end processor and HDDs).
I use a Chord Dave as pre amp/DAC direct to a Vitus RS-101. I use Roon.
What thoughts do you guys have on the what option and equipment will give the best SQ outcome and why?
Thanks in advance for the help.
