Got it. Could end up with lots of boxes though. Roon core or server, with separate power supply, buffer, dedicated endpoint, and dac. Then there’s the router and network stuff, or lots of cat five cable to connect them to your other boxes  My wife...

Looking for best streamer without DAC under $3500
Stereophile reviewed a couple of servers in the two most recent issues, Innous Statement and Wolf something or other, with the cheapest being about $10,000. Both of them were compared to the Roon Nucleus+ with an upgraded power supply - total cost...

If used as a line stage 
Audible Illusions modulus 3A, what would be the next level of up grade?
I haven't listened to one in a long time, but my impression is that the 3A is very good. It may be hard to beat for near the same kind of money. It does have a ton of gain which isn't an issue for vinyl, but might make finding a good match amplifi...
