Thanks for the answers! The Raspberry Pi way seems very neat and is one that I am considering for ‘distributing and filling up the home’ and for the joy of it.
But for the dedicated audio corner I might just have found a decent solution: The Hegel H190 seems to
- be Roon ready
- has a good sound,
- is a integrated ‘one box’ solution
- has the bare minimum of streaming (Spotify)
- does not have an unnecessary app
- does not have a UI (Roon is the UI)
This makes the Hegel quite a nice option for me. But it is annoying that Hegel seems to have a MQA ‘problem/confusion’ Signal path is 'High quality' instead of 'Lossless'? (H190)
By the way, @Bill_Janssen, what NAD box did you get, M10?
