Hi @Titan,

You can screen share screens between Macs:

I recommend you purchase the latest Mac Mini; it’s the fastest and offers the best value for money available today.

I use a headless Mac Mini M2 with a USB Cambridge Audio DAC and a NAD receiver and the Screen Sharing app to control from the Mac Studio in another room. It works flawlessly and sounds wonderful. Can’t comment on the upscaling - hopefully someone else wil be able to advise.

The Mac Mini is solely a music server with my library on a USB-C Samsung T7. The basic 8GB / 256GB configuration on the mini has not been an issue with Audirvana as the only app running .
