Thanks for the response.
To provide more context, here's the front end of my system:
MacBook Pro running Roon core -> streaming over WIFI using RAAT -> Auralic Altair acting as Roon endpoint -> DAC
My wireless network is robust and stable enough to where I experience no dropouts.
Dedicated music servers should perform better than a laptop when connected directly to a DAC or streamer via USB/TOSLINK/SPDIF. Does this advantage hold true when connecting the laptop over WIFI?
