Spend your money on your DACs - not your Roon core. Roon core can run on simple PC. I run mine on a repurposed Dell Win10 with 16GB of memory. The library is on a NAS outside the box. The Roon core PC runs 'headless' and occasionally I access it using VNC from another PC.
Best Server To Run Roon Core
Hi Folks,
I don’t currently run ROON, but would like to begin correctly in order to give it a chance - and I understand that server (hardware) on which Roon core is installed is important for SQ (due to noise reduction and other factors).
What are the best hardware for SQ and usability where ROON core should be installed and why (be it audiophile dedicated servers or modified PCs)? Please comment on the rest of your setup for context if you could.
Thank you in advance.
