Currently I am using an all-in-one headless streamer solution from Pinkfaun, consisting of a music server, with Audiolinux as the OS, Roon Server software + HQembedded player.
There are 2 internal SSD in the server, one with the OS and applications sotware, and the second one with my music collection (4TB).
I am thinking about the following new setup:
Windows 10 i7-based computer, running Roonserver, configured to play to the HQembedded streamer.
The 2 servers directly connected via ethernet (via 2nd ethernet port in the W10 computer).
Music library still on the SSD in HQembedded streamer.
Would this configuration work?
Would the actually music only be handled in the streamer (as the music files are there), or would every music track be loaded into Roon (coming from the streamer), and t(han send back to HQembedded for applying all filtering and eventual DSP?
Thanks for your feedback
