It has great integration with Qobuz and attached storage. The meta data links (i.e. liner notes of 2020) are never ending enjoyable and the radio thing you ClPeterson alluded to sound "way" cool. Your laptop as control and Core via WiFi is right on.

My hesitation is that I cannot do this with the BDP3 while using the laptop as you do (control and Core). Unless, there is something I am missing in the set-up?

John - if your laptop is running Roon Core, your music is on the laptop then you can use the BDP3 as a Roon endpoint and control it via Roon.

Our setup it is pretty simple - I run Roon Core and store the music on a NAS. I use Sonos as an endpoint, but run the Sonos digital output into a separate DAC.

You would use your laptop in lieu of the NAS and BDP3 in lieu of Sonos.

We switch from Roon, Sonos, and Spotify as the controller depending on who is using the system. Just apps on the iPad. You would be able to the same (Manic Moose or Roon)
