I appreciate the thoughtful views here and the positive experiences most have had with the Nucleus Plus. I want to offer a Caveat Emptor. I have had my Nucleus Plus for 3 months and it has never functioned appropriately. The last straw is that I cannot copy music files to its memory. It loops constantly and I have to force quit the program. I have a list of other failures. Needless to say it is virtually impossible to communicate with Roon, and going on a week, there has been no,response. Crickets. I am beyond angry to now pitch a $3k device into a landfill. My son said don’t buy a hardware product from a software company. I should have listened.
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.

@verdantaudio Thanks for the observation. I would have thought they would respond professionally. Maybe they are Covid short staffed. I have 2 acknowledged "tickets" but then crickets. It is very unlikely given my experience I will stick with the Nucleus. It's on;y a question how painful the transition will be.
