Streamer question


Please pardon my ignorance, but I've researched and I'm not finding what I'm looking for.

I currently house my music library in this configuration: NAS > PC > USB > DAC > RCA > Integrated amp. I use Roon as my primary and the Roon core is on an SSD plugged into the NAS. I run Tidal via Roon.

I'm looking for a streaming device to eliminate the USB cable, but that allows me to stream from my personal library (using Roon) as well as Tidal (while not using Roon).

Roon is flaky for me and sometimes I find it's not worth the hassle of dealing with, so I'd like to option to simplify things and stream directly from Tidal.

Everything I see is for streaming from a service (Roon/Quboz), but I'm not finding much on streaming my own personal library as well.

Hope this makes sense. Any help appreciated!

@chrisg1000 The roon forum/fora aka Roon Labs Community is terrific and you will get all the help you need there. I use Roon and it’s plays some of my ripped flac files from a disk w/ no problems.
Plenty of streamers to choose from that function as a roon end point. Done right digital can sound like vinyl. Just add money and serve.

Thanks. I have a decent system, just want to lose the USB cable. 
I’ll work on the Roon issues separately. 

BlueSound starts at $299 and will play files direct. A cheap WiiM will not. This method is much simpler than a NAS connected through DLNA.

I tried a bluesound once and returned it. As I recall it sounded odd and also couldn’t handle the size of my library.

But, thanks for the advice.
