hello, I have been using my Statement as Roon Core with Squeezelite Player. I would like to know whether other Statement owners out there prefer using your Statement as pure Roon Core instead. are there any significant sonic benefits of doing so?

Hello,

I installed LMS parallel to Roon to do an a>b comparison for local data. Both on the same hardware and playback chain.

With Flac files 16/44, the perceptions were different, sometimes Roon, sometimes LMS. With 24-bit and DSD (native > no DoP or PCM), perception was +LMS. No filters, upsampling, DSP or similar.

This picture made me think about changing. Not a statement, but an antipode S40+ linear power supply.
