Falcon Northwest Tiki modified and optimized to run Roon Headless Server as dedicated music server, Microsoft Surface Pro 3 Running Roon Controller. The Falcon USB through Wyred 4 Sound Recovery USB Reclocker and then to Wyred 4 Sound DAC-1 LE w/Femto Clock!!!

I’ve just added a Teac UD-H01 (for work) and a Mytek Brooklyn to my collection.

Music room = MacMini to Anthem D2v via HDMI
Computer = MacPro Desktop to Woo Audio W8 Eclipse to Audeze LCD-X

Finalizing the allowed roon testing period with the decision now to run Roon headless core on a tiny fan less ZOTAC via ASIO driver to T&A DAC 8 DSD and Accuphase amp. The well working chain is controlled by roon remote software package running on iMAC. Unfortunately room remote doesn’t fit to my old iPad so I have to get a state of the art iPAD what is fair enough.

Android is cheaper and also becomes a local zone
