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!

I'm mildly curious as well but no way I'm giving them another dime after my dance with them.

Despite them having the worst customer service on the planet w/Comcast being it's only competitor ....if you just stream it's likely a great product.

I listen primarily to live GDead and Phish so 1,000's of concerts and tracks by the sane artist....this made it impossible for Roon to handle and somehow Innuos Sense has no problem

I will admit, I hate the corporate definition of "call us for assistance" equates to "post in this forum", and dozens of know-it-alls with no real experience may or may not respond to your inquiry. 

Yes. Grateful Dead is the biggest issue for me. Presumably for to the number of tracks under the same artist. 

@mclinnguy, Ah, I understand your statement now.  You’re including all albums of an artist’s works, by the artist himself, or by others.
