I’m glad my suggestion solved your problem! Roon is a popular music player, and not just among those using Macs or Apple devices. You can pay for it by monthly subscription or by purchasing a lifetime license. (I shall refrain from commenting on the value of the lifetime license as I’ve not used Roon myself). You can also see what it’s like with a free trial. There are many advantages to using Roon. It can be used quite simply, with it just installed on your Mac, with the Mac then connected to your D70 DAC, and your amp and headphones. But it can also connect to other devices, including network storage devices and streamers, and it has integration with music services like Tidal and Qobuz. See here: [https://roonlabs.com/howroonworks](https://roonlabs.com/howroonworks) Here are some threads about it on this forum that might help you learn more: > [@Questions & Comments about Roon](https://forum.headphones.com/t/questions-comments-about-roon/1208): > > I’ve noticed a lot of chatter about Roon and I thought it would be nice to create a resource for people who know about Roon to share with people who don’t. There’s a bit of an up-front cost, and there’s a lot to this piece of software so I can see why there are so many questions. Feel free to ask and answer them here. If someone could also write a beginners description of exactly what Roon is I think it would also be really helpful! > [@Roon and Network storage](https://forum.headphones.com/t/roon-and-network-storage/11635): > > I wanted validate what i understand about Roon so far so I can grasp what will work for me the best. I’m posting here to see if the communicate can validate what I understand so far. From what I understand right now, it does not benefit me unless I’ve been download music and burning cd’s to store on a network device. At first I had this weird idea that you could use Roon and Tidal as a solution that you could download your Tidal files to your Roon server for offline play, sounds simple enough, … > [@Roon or Audirvana and why](https://forum.headphones.com/t/roon-or-audirvana-and-why/4628): > > I wanted to reach out to the [headphone.com](http://headphone.com) community and ask for your help. I was wondering what everyone thought of each: Roon and Audirvana? Which one would ‘you’ recommend for a 2018 MacBook Pro and why? I currently have both Tidal and Qobuz, both using their own desktop/app on my MacBook Pro. Not sure if this would make a difference or not but I have an iFi iUSB 3.0 in the chain. Thank You for the help as it is appreciated! Another pice of information that is probably important.
