Your Revox is heavy? I can’t even lift my Otari BQII any more. (Anyone interested?) I enjoy my favorite well made recordings in Redbook (or analog) more than most DSD files that I have. I used to record vinyl but I cannot abide permanent surface n...

Obviously you are way past where I ever got with PC sound. Once I got my first streamer (of 6 current) ones I pretty much abandoned it except for ripping/mastering. I did notice quite an improvement in minimizing PC noise using Fidelizer. I recomm...

Streamer software, what do you use?
piCorePlayer on my Raspberry Pi. No need for Roon to combine core with streamer. That is totally erroneous. Except for the fact that only Roon has a "core."  
Audio Spectrum Analysis
It looks very spiky. Many mics can't even get up that high. The only real verification has to be local. A picture means little in the land of AI.  
Looking for an all-in-one just-add-speakers streamer for my son to take to college
My thoughts tend towards a PowerNode for a first one. It should be easy to sell if he decides to move up. I bought my son a nice biwired rig that he kept all through school. Now that he got PhD ed (& married?) he doesn’t even want that or any ... 
DAC USB Hum
@jacobsdad2000 Of course sir, maybe I should have mentioned it. Easily observable by moving the box and cables around. I guess I assumed that maneuver is much easier than posting here
