If you are looking for simple music player for stand-alone or even multi-room to use with the PowerDAC-SX 
checkout piCorePlayer.

When run from an RPI4 you could connect your music to the RPI4 directly by USB or to NAS via network.

using a Toslink cable.

It supports 44.1kHz / 48kHz / 88.2kHz / 96kHz / 176.4kHz / 192kHz.

Be sure to set  Audio Volume Control to fixed at 100%, set Audio Crossfade to No, Volume gain to None.

Then install “Material Skin” in LMS and choose in LMS pages under “Web Interface” and you will have a very 
nice user interface using any browser on any PC in your network.
