I spent a winter ripping all my CDs, editing metadata, and loading the music into my Roon library: I still have nightmares about importing boxed sets. Its design wasn't especially amenable to classical music (although it was as good as anything else). For a product that sold itself on the richness of its information environment, it wasn't all that rich. I was an early Roon adopter, but I always had complaints. The future of hi-fior should I say its presentwas taking shape. I assembled my first network-attached storage (NAS) device, with 10TB of storage space shared, with redundancy, across four large hard drives, stashed in a back-room closet. Soon, after some upgrades, Roon and my DAC were talking to each other, and I was up and streaming. I built up an Intel NUC and loaded it with ROCKthe Roon-Optimized Core Kitand Roon.

I had a vision of how things ought to work, but the world didn't conform. The experiences offered by the various control apps I tried were unsatisfying. I was already a Roon user, but Roon and my DACa PS Audio DirectStreamweren't yet talking to each other. Streaming audio was a great idea, but how would I get the music data from wherever it lives to my DAC's Ethernet port? Subscription not included, but can be added for an additional fee.I bought my first streaming DAC in 2016, even though I wasn't yet convinced about streaming. No more worries with network issues or wondering if ROON is still Makes album look ups substantially quicker than network attached drives.
