Since you have a sonic transporter, I have a couple questions for you if you don't mind:
1. Will the sonic transporter itself stream wirelessly to an endpoint, or only through an ethernet cable?
2. Will the sonic transporter deliver a playable signal directly by USB into a DAC, or only through an endpoint?
I do think I'm getting there on what Roon is now. But I'm trying to figure out if I can manage a CA system without a Mac or PC in the chain at all by instead using a sonic transporter, or whether people are sill using it with another computer in the system (and if so, why).
As Abe points out, I'll still need one to rip CDs so I'll probably be going for a Mac Mini with the separate CD drive, but still trying to think it all through.
