Room EQ Wizard, Audio Output

I downloaded Room EQ wizard (REW), bought a microphone and set everything up. So far so good and was able to run some sweeps. I would like to run the speaker output through my regular speakers. I can only get output from the laptop, which is not a very good test. How can I connect room EQ wizard on my Mac laptop to my system. If it matters, I stream using Roon and Qobuz. Thanks for any assistance you can provide. I’m stuck.

I just saw that you are using Roon.  If you have test files, you can copy them over to your Roon library and treat them like any other ripped tracks.  This is what I do, which lets me apply Room's DSP/EQ and measure the results.

Doesn’t your laptop have a mini jack for headphones? You just need an adapter from that to RCA. It’s plenty good for your use.

If your laptop is Bluetooth only you'll need to get a USB or Blutooth DAC instead.  ~ $50 or less.
