Ultimately my goal would be to play music both Redbook and hi-res from my NAS. I would prefer something with multiple digital outs. RCA and AES would be great. I don't need a DAC inside or ability to rip CDs. I also don't really need internal storage but it might be a nice thing. I could use the internal drive to play music and just use the NAS as a backup. That way I wouldn't need an Ethernet connection in the room with the stereo.

All good points. Not sure if you stream currently, but if not, don't neglect it. Of course wifi works well for most streaming, so you wouldn't need ethernet per se. Streaming is our favorite way to build the library - hear something, explore the artist/genre, buy something. Highly enjoyable; hence my interest in Roon.
