for Audirvana Plus on my headless Mac Mini. Yet to figure out how to set it up.
I'm always late to the party. :-(
Our local Audiophile Society had a 'shootout' using a highly modified Mac Mini owned by a guy who worked for Apple and a number of DACs plus various software and, sad to say, from my point of view JRiver sounded better than either Roon or Audirvana. In fact, Roon was last in the view of many in attendance but I still have will not give my $$ to JRiver.
Regards Roon, the guy running the various players on his Mac partially blamed himself as it seems Roon comes with default settings which may NOT be the best for everyone's taste and those who take time to optimize the setting claim it sounds great.
I have heard Roon sound quite good at shows, etc. and many of the rooms at RMAF this year were using Roon. Plus many who use the uRendu prefer Roon to LMS.
If I ever get a uRendu I may end up with Roon for stored music playback but I will likely still require LMS to stream QOBUZ.
Good luck and do keep us posted if you decide to 'upgrade' from Audirvana.
