Is there a TV involved in this? If so consider an Oppo 205. You could use it for streaming from your computer, and you could also use it as you DVD & CD player. Thus reducing a box.
Depending on how mush music you plan to store on your computer, you could use a dedicated Mac Mini and buy it with maxed out storage. Minis are relatively easy to set up for computer audio.
Then lastly, for my player, I've just started using Roon with the Tidal streaming interface that is built into Roon. It is really , really nice. Tidal streams at red book CD quality if you get the upgraded version. I switched over from Amarra. So far, so good.
My personal setup has numerous boxes so I won't bother you with the details, but what I've described above would be pretty simple and involve 2 boxes - Mini and the Oppo. And you would not need DVD or CD player.
Good luck. Let us know how you decide to go.
