Recently upgraded to Naim Uniti Atom driving my Hypex nCore mono power amplifiers. Could not be happier. Room integration works perfectly since the Naim is Roon certified.

Berkeley Alpha DAC 2 MQA from a Audio Alchemy DMP-1 by way of a ST i5.

I also use the sMS-200 and the M-DAC+ and am very happy with the sound quality. Strangely, when I tested a Raspberry Pi with Roon Bridge installed, it Roon Server recognized the dac perfectly. Now it only says Audiolab Audiolab USB2, not the model. I wonder do you have the same entry in server?

My whole equipment chain:

Roon -> Chord Silver USB + Mutec MC-3+ USB -> Belden 1694A -> Naim DAC + TeddyXPS -> Linn Silver DIN -> Naim SuperNait2 + TeddyCap -> NAC A5 -> ATC SCM40 MkII

Still waiting for Roon Ready for Mutec. Should be on its way I heard.

845

Idem! Audiolab confirmed that the MDAC plus would get MQA update.

846

I use the Sony Signature Series TA-ZH1ES.
