Finally made the dive into lossless audio today, and I'm hooked.
I pulled an old forgotten Mac Mini out of a drawer and wiped it clean and updated the OS. Picked up a Dragonfly Red DAC and plugged it into my Luxman C1010, and installed Tidal and Roon.
So far so good - very impressed with the upgrade in sound over Spotify "Extreme" SQ.
I have the mac running out to my LG OLED for setup purposes, but I'm planning on just leaving the mac running all the time "headless" and controlling my Tidal playlists through Roon via phone.
But I am kind of nervous about leaving that Mac Mini running all the time... who knows what's going on in there without me peeking in on it from time to time.
Are there any steps I should take to ensure that everything continues to run smoothly and I get the best performance out of this setup?
