[QUOTE="irengineer, post: 762401, member: 1315"] Great writeup! Why would you not connect the DAC directly to the PC running Roon Core? I already own purchased audio files in up to DSD256, and intend using the Brooklyn DAC for the purpose of fully unfolding Tidal MQA Masters. My idea was to hook the Brooklyn straight into the Core-i7 running Roon Core, via USB from the PC. I do have some RPi 3's, but did not think of using them as Roon Bridge devices. I am currently using a RPi3/Pi-DAC+ combo with Volumio as a toy. I though about using this as a Roon Endpoint (I think Volumio is Roon Ready) in my entertainment area, driving a simple amp/speaker setup. What would the advantage of a Roon Bridge be vs. a direct USB connection, especially since the devices are less than 1 meter apart in my case? And I was cleary dozing about the Doze reference lol Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
