The end of production for DejaVu was bummer for me, JCAT usb major calling card for me.   Debjit_J, interesting you found JCAT superior to Fiber NIC, wonder if fiber prior to server had bearing on this? It may also be what comes after usb or fib... 
Cheapest way to enhance SQ with digital streaming
You'll find diverse opinions on most streaming products, in the end one has to determine for self. The good thing about the FMC experiment is it can be done for less than $100, where can you find such a deal in audio! If experience promising you c... 
Please help my ignorant a$$, I just want a good streamer...I think.
The beauty of streaming is you can make it simple or complex. Simple, get a server, plug in usb cable to dac, done. The software side is something you get familiar with over time.   Streaming became complicated when manufacturers came up with us...

Best server to use WITHOUT Roon
@mdrone You do know you're Sonictransporter not limited to Roon only. You can use JRiver, Audirvana or any number of players with it. Also, you could try Euphony Stylus Endpoint and/or core which is superimposed upon Roon, supposedly superior soun... 
Best server to use WITHOUT Roon
@ghdprentice Every streamer or server is a computer. As I understand it, Aurrender holds to minimal processor model as being best, interesting. I can understand the logic of this, but means one cannot use any dsp. Not making judgmental here, just ... 
Atma-Sphere vs. Supratek
