you are 100% right that it's a challenge for server makers to overcome. but......there are servers and dacs now (at higher price points for sure) that have met and overcome the processing power and heat issues that were real processing limitations until very recently. maybe investigate the Taiko Extreme server. it is a 99 pound music server. ninety nine pounds for a computer!!!
SGM EXTREME – Taiko Audio
i've owned one for a year. these are heavily back ordered taking a few months to get.
my point being that if you want digital gear that is not stressed by getting pushed hard they exist. but it will cost you.
Totally agree. These machines are certainly available... for a price


My Falcon Northwest configured as a dedicated server running Roon and HQPlayer does a wonder job in my view
