I appreciate the detailed response, I understand it better now
So if I'm using the pc to feed the tt2 files. I'd like to control at least next file and pause from my phone on my couch.
Is that possible to control my pc playback please?

A quality usb cable won't do the trick? I'm not all that techy, after the tt2 purchase I was knocked out.Hey Paul (It’s your ultra Beatles haircut)
I found the same about Roon when I trialled it. You have to disable a few things in a few places to even get it from dicking with the waveform. Even after doing this it didn’t sound right. I’m sure this is because of the processor utilisation which in turn modulates the power supply and its noise. The end point Code has changed quite a since I tried it so maybe it’s better now.
What I use is the LMS system which is a free server streamer system. Much lower overhead processor wise and didn’t have the congested feeling that Roon had when I tried it. It’s trickier to set up but does most of what Roon does. and it’s free.
From memory you’re running straight out of a computer? You should try putting a low noise streamer between the two. The ultraRendu is a good entry level product and handles Roon and LMS. You can spend double that to do better, or if you are more techy you can roll your own with a NUC for even less money.
And I highly recommend something like the EtherRegen to clean up your network connection before it gets to your streamer...
I mean if you’re determined to get absolutely ALL out of your system then yes, a quality USB cable is just the tip of a messy and expensive iceberg. Next thing you know you’re saving for a $10k music server.A quality usb cable won't do the trick? I'm not all that techy, after the tt2 purchase I was knocked out.
Idk what to do, I wish it was more or less *plug n play *
So a streamer will be better than any software and cable?
Personally, I feel the TT2 is perfectly fine on itself with a reasonable USB or optical cable running Roon or Audirvana.
PC, lcd4zMy TT runs perfect on both Roon and Audirvana. Make sure you are set to DSD over PCM. Everything is maxed out, integer is on. You will not get a sound bump from a fancy USB cable. You will get a significant sound gain if you are playing back high resolution files. If you are streaming off Tidal, get a pro account so you can play back masters. What does the end of your chain look like? Headphones? Speakers? What are you listening on?
