It does seem complicated but if you read enough reviews, it finally sinks in....its not all that complicated. I will admit that before setting mine up, I diagramed it out. But it worked first time.
Think of endpoints like an apple TV (and an apple tv can be used as an endpoint) It takes the data and converts into something your tv can use.
An endpoint can get its data from ethernet (a raspberry pi, a micrrendu, a few dacs with ethernet bridges built in) or form wifi. (apple airport or TV for example)
I have a sonic transporter from Small Green Computer and it does nothing! It sits there and hosts roon and its metadata. It makes not a noised works perfectly with about two minutes of set up.
The elac does a bit more (it has a dac too) and comes with a roon subscription. Its an even simpler option.
